A LITTLE ABOUT ME

I’ve spent more than 25 years creating and directing award-winning advertising campaigns. Along the way, I’ve learned to pay attention to the little things, the habits, rituals, and unspoken behaviors people go through without even realizing it. These aren’t the kinds of insights you’ll find on charts or in focus groups, but they’re the ones that often make the difference between good and great messaging.

My ability to anticipate behaviors and reactions, paired with a deep creative drive, has helped me craft campaigns that meet immediate goals while also building lasting impact.

At the heart of my work is a passion for connecting brands with people in meaningful ways. I believe inspiration and creativity spark genuine relationships and help brands break through the clutter. I feel fortunate to spend my career balancing people skills, strategic creative thinking, and team leadership.

I’d love the opportunity to do the same for you.

MY PHILOSPHY

In 2004, my mentor changed the course of my professional life.

At the time, I was a classically trained graphic designer with an ACD title and, honestly, a lot of good luck. My bosses brought in Bob Matsumoto—an ad veteran who had worked at DDB alongside legends like Bill Bernbach and Helmut Krone on Volkswagen—to teach me a thing or two about the ad business. And boy, did he.

Bob showed me the playbook. He taught me how to concept, that teamwork is paramount, and that the best ideas are always a perfect blend of truth and emotion.

Oh, and he also suggested I become a copywriter so that he and I could be a team.

20 plus years later I’m still making ads and building brands. Thanks to Bob (and Bill)
