ABOUT

I grew up skateboarding and learning to fall hard. Very hard. In public. So, I’m down to swing for the fences with powerful ideas that influence culture.
I’m a Senior Creative Director, Art & Copy, and Creative Technologist with 15 years of global experience known for exceptional taste level, big city hustle, and impeccable craft. I craft creative campaigns and brand narratives that launch, grow, and evolve global brands.
I'm tough on the work and generous with colleagues. I've led creative teams at top agencies like TBWAChiatDay, 72andSunny, and Saatchi & Saatchi, entertainment studios including NBC Universal, Pivot, and Sundance Channel, and done brand work for tech cos including DoorDash, Amazon and Waymo. I've led Art Direction and Copy teams on Super Bowl commercials and an Emmy nominated series.
Oh, and I’m a nerd. Hands-on experience with generative visual tools including Midjourney, Runway, and Firefly, creative automation through ChatGPT and ElevenLabs, and real-time environments including Unity, Unreal Engine, and design tools Figma and Adobe Suite. I build and test prototypes in Github and web platforms like Vercel, connect APIs, and streamline workflows.
Resume
Senior Creative Director & Creative Technologist with 15 years of global experience, focused on evolving brand identity and creative expression across markets. I shape cohesive, future‑forward visual and narrative systems for brands and original content, overseeing multidisciplinary creative teams (design, copy, experiential, technology) and partnering with Brand Strategy, Consumer Marketing, Content, and Product. I lead teams to craft visual/tonal guidelines, insight‑driven, culturally resonant campaign narratives, and advise executives on creative that drives business. As a creative I've sold screenplays, created/co‑EP’d original TV series scripted and docu-series. I get audio storytelling and have written and lead teams to write Radio and Podcast ads. I'm a massive believer in the theater of the mind. I'm hands‑on with AI‑powered creative tools and agents to prototype, version, and scale storytelling without degrading quality.
