Throughout my career, I’ve been lucky enough to collaborate with some of the finest agencies, clients and production partners in all the land – working on everything from sports networks to insurance brands to sub-premium liquors sold in plastic bottles. My work has been recognized by the One Show, Cannes, Clio’s, Webby’s and has been covered in places like Forbes, The Daily Mail, Complex, Variety, Esquire and more. Outside of work, I enjoy eating vegetables, skateboarding, listening to metal, writing humor essays (like this one or this one), playing guitar, learning languages and spending time with my wife and dog. If you’d like to learn more, I’ve foolishly put my contact information on the Internet below.
