I spent several years owning my craft (about a decade, but who's counting...).
I have my portfolio from Chicago Portfolio School, and have been fortunate to work at the world's best creative agencies ever since. I am obsessed with growing my talents and my passion is relentless. Advertising doesn't have to be noise; It can actually change the world. I'm more focused now on driving diversity, equity, and inclusion, alongside pushing the boundaries for economic, social & political impact (ESG).
Sometimes though, humor is the best for a tough brief. Put me in a room with a problem, and I will generate 100+ ideas in no time. It helps to have a great partner and team though, ideally, a team of weirdo cool people. After all, this industry is all about your team and the people you collaborate endlessly with.
I have art directed for various levels of clients (small-large global brands), to develop truly creative insights and big ideas.
I'm an expert in social media campaigns, and creating branded communication experiences that their customers love.
I have gained invaluable experience working with brands like Kellogg's, Anheuser-Busch, Kroger, Burger King, Clorox (Hidden Valley Ranch), FTX, Truly, Choose Chicago, 500px, Apple, Mars Inc., and Wintrust Financial Corporation.
