Creative Director, Copywriter & Strategic Thinker
Hello!
I am a creative problem solver who’s always on the hunt for new and innovative ways to tell brand stories.
With 15+ years of experience as a copywriter and creative director at both ad agencies and in-house, I’ve helped dozens of products connect with their audiences in unique and meaningful ways.
To truly understand a brand, you have to understand the people who make it and the consumers who love it.
This job has opened so many doors I never anticipated. Just to name a few…

Traveled to New Zealand to film a Sasquatch for Jack Link’s
Got listed on Urban Dictionary for Orbit gum
