About Me

I’m a creative art director with over 10 years of experience building thoughtful, full-funnel campaigns across digital, social, and beyond. I’ve worked with everything from small agency shops to global brands — collaborating with talented teams to bring smart, visually compelling ideas to life.

My background spans a range of industries, including tech, entertainment, CPG, pharma, and automotive. Whether I’m leading a concept from the ground up or adjusting those few pixels, I like to keep the process collaborative, focused, and grounded with a concrete creative strategy.

Outside of work, I’m a new dad who is still figuring out sleep schedules, an avid football fan, movie junkie, video game nerd, ultimate frisbee player, and a corgi enthusiast. Always open to hearing about the next great creative opportunity — or fun memes.
