I’ve worked with blue chip and boutique brands. Healthcare, B to B, tech, and finance. I find creative solutions to business problems. And I have a lot of experience doing it.

I’m a creative director with an art & design background. I’ve managed large and small creative teams and accounts, collaborating on craft with writers, designers, photographers, directors, web developers, artists, musicians, and celebrities.

I’ve worked full-time at Ogilvy, McCann, Merkley & Partners, and was part of the small team who took TBWA’s consumer healthcare agency from its inception to rapid growth.

I’ve worked as a freelance creative at shops like Antidote, Klick, Hill Holiday, Evoke, BBDO, Digitas Health, Ogilvy Commonwealth, McCann Healthcare, and TBWA/NY on many marquis brands.

I’ve won creative awards from Cannes, One Show, MM+M, Clios, D&AD, NY Festivals, London International Awards, and the Effies.

I bring a seasoned, fast, and thoughtful approach to every job I’m on.

Ask anyone. They’ll tell you.

Let’s make something amazing together!
