Curiosity is the Bedrock of Creativity

I have been a Creative Director/Copywriter for 15+ years. I’ve worked with some incredible people who have helped me create some incredible work. From the big global pitches, crafting that perfect headline, to helping that little shop get the attention it deserves, I’m all in. Yes, I’ve led, and contributed, to award-winning creative across all media platforms. It true, I’m skilled in developing and executing campaigns that drive brand awareness. If I didn’t this would be a complete waste of digital ink. I do lead by example. I do embrace team collaboration. And I show up for the people I work with and the clients who deserve my best. Never the other way around.
