Advertising Creative Director


CONTACT
I’m a Creative Director with 20+ years of experience creating integrated campaigns for brands like Google, BMW, Puma, Rolex, Kraft Heinz and Allstate.
I work across film, digital, social, print and OOH, leading teams while staying hands-on in the work. Lately, I’ve been exploring AI as another creative tool to bring good ideas to life.

I’m a Creative Director and art director with 20+ years of experience building brands, creating integrated campaigns and finding creative ways to solve complicated business problems.
Along the way, I’ve been lucky enough to create work for brands like Google, IBM, BMW, Puma, Rolex, Kraft Heinz, Allstate, Truist, Prudential, AstraZeneca and the Milwaukee Bucks across just about every channel.
​
I’ve led multidisciplinary teams, but I still love being hands-on and working alongside strategists, writers, designers, marketers and production teams to take an idea from a brief to something we’re all proud to put out into the world.
​
Lately, I’ve also been having a lot of fun exploring generative AI across image, video, motion and voice. I see it as another tool in the creative toolbox. The technology is exciting, but the idea still has to be good.
