ABOUT

As someone who’s never cared much for titles, I’ve had many. Here’s a few things that I've learned from each:

FOUNDER

You have to stay reluctantly determined and open to change at the same time.

VP/EXECUTIVE

Build a team that believes in achieving a bigger vision. Then let them achieve it. 

CREATIVE DIRECTOR

Directing a team to collectively deliver killer creative work is far more fulfilling than any individual award I’ve ever received. 

ART DIRECTOR

I've had the opportunity to work on regional brands, international brands and a whole lot in between. It doesn't matter the size or budget, every project has potential to be great.

DESIGNER

There's an important distinction between having a design style and a design point of view. I learned to be flexible with style, but firm on my point of view. 

ILLUSTRATOR

I use the eraser more than the pencil.

DAD

By far my most important title, being a dad teaches me patience, keeps me grounded and reminds me to celebrate the little things. This job makes me better at all of my other jobs.
