I’m an award winning ACD Art Director who’s been working in Advertising for the past 10+ years. I have a strong background in building brands and coming up with work that can spread across mediums.

I've had the opportunity to work on brands like: Kia, Motorola, American Express, E*Trade, Holiday Inn, Scrubbing Bubbles, Vitaminwater, Lenovo, Comcast Cable, NFL and Reebok.

I also love to pursue personal projects, the most recent of which #VoteBecause,
a Webby Award winning social media account I created with my wife and two close friends. Through organic means only, we successfully amassed alarge following with posts that garnered over 250 million impressions, major celebrity support, and hopefully swayed some votes.
