About

I was born in the small town King of the Hill was based on, but I currently live in Brooklyn. I was always creating as a kid, from short stories to songs to music videos to stage plays. 

These days, I’ve been called a creative mercenary, a client whisperer, and one hell of a mustache. I’ve won Cannes, One Show, Effies, and more, but I’ve yet to do the best work of my career. I wake up every day trying to do the impossible to make brands famous and successful. I push for the big and the crazy and the provocative, because safe work doesn’t move the needle.

I’m fascinated by every part of the job. Figuring out how to do what’s never been done. Putting in the work to earn clients’ trust. Nerding out on data and research. Collaborating with smart, talented people. And the best part: learning something new every day. 

Outside the office, I write songs on guitar, and I’m currently learning piano. I love concerts, dog walks, and doing the dishes. 

And yes, my father still thinks this boy ain’t right.
