Greetings from SF

If you had asked me as a child what I wanted to be when I grew up, I would have told you a Disney animator. If you had asked me the same question in high school, my answer would have been a studio painter. After college, my response would have been a commercial photographer. While I set out to be all those things in life, I failed. But that’s okay. It brought me here – albeit in a roundabout way – and I couldn’t be more content that I still get to be creative every single day.

As an art director, I look at life as a collection of stories. A good story has the power to evoke emotions and create lasting connections. Over the past ten years, I’ve guided brands, from the iconic to the underdogs, as they’ve shaped their own stories. Along the way, I honed my craft as I experienced life in NY, DC, LA, and now SF. I also helped bring ideas to life for some pretty cool brands, including Beats By Dre, Activision, Audi, and Salesforce — creating everything from big conceptual campaigns to fresh social content.

When I’m not working, I like to hit the road and explore places near and far. You’ll usually find me with a camera around my neck or flying my drone trying to capture the perfect story caught in a moment. A few more tidbits about me: my love languages are memes and GIFs, and as a Californian, I say both hella and add ‘the’ in front of freeways. Go figure. 

Enough about me. I’d love to shoot the shit, talk stories, share photos, or learn how I might be able to help you. Get in touch.
