Creative Consultant / CD / AD

Specialist & Consultant

I'm currently freelancing and giving consideration to full-time opportunities.  I'm very experienced at building US and global programs for medium and large brands.

From short to long term strategic marketing, to seasonal themes, content, curation and cadence, I can drive comprehensive campaigns across all sales channels and platforms, as well as conceive broad reaching experiential activations on a global scale.

I'm well-seasoned in managing creative departments and pride myself on inspiring my team and peers to raise the bar while coming in under budget.

My niche categories are outdoor, automotive, action sports (surf, skate, snow, moto), activewear, eco/green and contemporary art.  Mix all that up in a bag with a love of technology and storytelling and you're starting to get me.

I enjoy helping entrepreneurs and those entrepreneurial-minded.  I thrive on finding undiscovered value propositions within the creative and marketing of a company.

I'm often the first to market with emerging technology, because I keep up on it, understand it and know how to apply it to 360 storytelling and onsite activations.

Based in LA.
