I'm an entrepreneur by accident, a strong performer by nature, and an understandings-obsessed Creative Leader on (and with) purpose.Don't be your first no, kid. I founded my creative agency as an experiment. 🧐Was it possible for the people facilitating the magic (the creatives, the ones trying to peek around corners for clients, the dreamers, the data nerds!) to have direct collaboration with the founders and leaders they were creating for, instead of being tucked out of view behind 30 silos and change-orders, just out of earshot? Was it possible to do this, AND––hear me out––keep the electric on? Spoiler: I'm writing this from a warmly-lit room, and the same components of creative collaboration and direct connection still light me up 10 years later. ⚡I'm fascinated by the something-smalls about people and the brands they build. I love shaping and sharpening points of view and approach brand building challenges as some sort of journalistic fever dream––always ready to uncover the anchor for shared connection. ⚓I'll never tire of talking about the ways creative choices shape perception 🎨→😍, or how asking the right questions can synthesize a shared viewpoint, if you're willing to dig in and listen. There's no time for tepid.❤️‍🔥The best and most visceral of us comes through creatively when we stop being too cool to care. I care what happens next. In fact, I want to track the experience. And then run another test. 🧪The brand strategies and solutions I drive are centered around being intentional, never incidental. My most rewarding work proves we've listened well, and proudly served as mirror 🪞and 🎤amplifier to capture the right message that resonates and drives meaningful engagement with the exact right audience.If I'm not hand-talking about how we can figure it out together, and YES you should wear that, you’ll find me onstage, pouring that same energy into every performance. 🐆
