I lead creative direction and strategy for regional, national and global brands across the Food, CPG, Travel, Green, Healthcare and Financial industries.Having served in leadership roles in both digital and traditional creative positions, I’ve gained the ability to make recommendations across channels based on what’s right for the assignment, not just that with which I’m most comfortable. And having co-led a joint media and digital partnership for some of America’s biggest brands, my expertise extends beyond concepting and execution into ensuring that our messaging is reaching the right people at the right time in the right place.As a manager and mentor, I advocate for my employees and stand up for them. My ability to connect with disparate groups helps me stay rooted. But it also helps me earn my coworkers’ and employees' trust. I've found that I will always find an ally in a time of need if I always treat my peers with kindness and respect.With four out of five of my top Gallup Strengths falling squarely within the strategic realm, I bring insights and research into every recommendation I make. It’s not enough to make something creative for creativity’s sake. All good work balances executions which have never been seen with insights that are impossible to ignore. This focus on problem-solving with undeniable truths drives everything that I do.Want to get to know each other? Drop me a line. I'm always up for coffee.Key Brand Experience:• Panda Express• Cuties Clementines• Disney Parks & Resorts• Bosch• UnitedHealthcare• Allstate• Phillips 66• Union Pacific• TD Ameritrade• Rain Bird• Cargill• Honeywell• Jeppesen• Textron• Sue Bee Honey• College Savings Plans Network• First National Bank of Omaha• Ace Hardware• The Kaneko• Omaha Airport Authority• Madonna Rehabilitation Hospitals• OrthoNebraska• NEST 529 College Savings Plans• Omaha’s Henry Doorly Zoo• Visit Nebraska
