About me
Branding and rebranding is what I do best—(hopefully) in a way that resonates and engages with the target. I enjoy collaboration, strategic development, and coming up with great ideas. I am a problem solver, a poet, a visionary, a madman, the chocolate in a sea of vanilla. I have worked with some of the greatest shops in the country—Pyro, Modernista, Chiat, BBH, 72 and Sunny, and many you've never heard of. I have won awards and left my mark on many brands—Fiat, Samsung, AT&T, Axe, Hummer, Converse, Coke, Dyson, British Airways, Miller and more. I can think traditionally as well as digitally, and believe a great idea is a great idea whether it lives as a TV campaign, an experiential event, in social media or an App.
