The defining theme of my career has been translating ideas and brands into compelling stories, narratives that move people to action.I helped build the first broadband Internet provider in the country as in-house marketing director, product manager, and national media spokesperson; crafted the voice and messaging for some of the biggest online advertisers during the first dot-com wave, as creative director at one of the Top 25 interactive agencies in the U.S.; transformed a traditional full service ad agency into a digital powerhouse, as Creative Director and VP of Digital; then helped challenger brands disrupt their industries as co-founder of a national award-winning boutique creative agency and video production company. My work has taken me all over the globe, often while capturing stories in the field and then turning them into immediate social media content. I’ve crossed paths with scientists and rock stars, corporate CEOs and Congressmen, Olympic gold medalists and billionaire investors. But, what I’m most proud of is the direct impact my work has had on dozens of brands that have been able to grow, flourish, and, in some ways, make the world a little bit better.Specialties: * Leadership – growing, managing, and inspiring a team; working across departments and disciplines; setting a vision and seeing it through.* Strategic Thinking – Analyzing data, finding the key insights, and building an achievable, strategic road map.* Creative Vision – Leading a collaborative team effort through design thinking, concept and ideation, messaging, art direction, storytelling, production, and final delivery.* Hands-On Doing – Client relationship managing, pitching, producing, directing, writing, editing, pinch hitting in whatever role needs it at that moment.
