I have applied my passion for the arts to help create and grow multi-million and billion-dollar brands across the world, as well as marketing and promotional work from automotive companies to breweries, and non-profits to world-renowned musicians.

My creative approach—no matter the project—is to find points of tension behind the idea I’ve been assigned or am interested in. I do several iterations on each point and usually end up refining the one I find most controversial.

For me, the controversy isn’t about instigation, but rather, a way to arrest your audience. It’s a way to plant a little bit of desire in their hearts; a yearning to turn the page, or scroll a little more and learn more about your idea. Ultimately, it’s about creating memorable experiences and images, no matter how brief the moment is given.

My other hobbies include rebuilding and riding classic motorcycles, exploring new museums and restaurants with my wife, and spending time with my American Staffordshire Terrier rescue Gina.

I’m currently available to hire on a freelance/contract basis.
