We founded Gravy Boat Regatta to write, direct and produce original animated comedy. But that didn’t work out. So we leaned back on our agency backgrounds and shifted from show running to campaign and brand development.We’ve built visual identities for start-ups and mid-market companies, served as the agency of record for a range of clients, and crafted integrated campaigns.

I was the creative director for Roman – by far the biggest revenue driver and most visible line of business for Ro. I led a wonderful creative team and collaborated with lovely cross-functional partners to transition from promo/transactional marketing to tell bold, authentic, highly visible, top-of-funnel brand stories. I took the lead on many integrated campaigns, large commercial productions, new product launches, in-store activations, a national partnership with MLB, a brand and visual identity revamp, and a serious volume of evergreen performance collateral. I'm incredibly proud of all the work we produced. It was rad.

You may not know that Dell.com sells more than just Dell products. And you may not know that they ship everything for free. My job was to get people excited about free shipping and handling on all the things you can buy on Dell.com.

MRM//McCann hired me to create an interactive digital experience. The site featured four mini-games, each simulating a different role an Earth Space Defense soldier would be asked to perform in the event of an alien invasion. Totally normal stuff. The experience was the center of a larger co-branded campaign between 20th Century Fox to promote the movie Independence Day Resurgence, and the U.S. Army to drive recruitment.

This was the first and only time I was hired to tweet for the Super Bowl. I also created and directed social content productions for some clients: Bud Light, Nest, General Electric.

IBM’s THINKLab conducts cutting-edge research that produces serious results for a wide range of IBM’s clients. But the business and consumer facing brand of the THINKLab did not communicate the dynamism of the research arm. They needed a cutting edge website to show off their cutting edge achievements in order to convince managers, C-suite execs, movers, and shakers to hire IBM to analyze their data and innovate new ways for their businesses to be more competitive.Havas hired me to concept and creative direct this new digital experience for IBM THINKLab. I conceived of a digital experience that utilizes 3D polyhedrons as design elements to help organize the site's content, and as the actual parallax functionality of the site's navigation. The result was an experience disarmingly simple, elegant and intriguingly unorthodox that more accurately articulates the innovative spirit of the THINKLab. This included lots of visits to the Thomas J. Watson Research Center which has some pretty groovy architecture by Eero Saarinen.

I was brought in to oversee the design and build of Samsung's Black Friday website and social campaign, concept big ideas for MasterCard’s travel program, and roll out the Priceless Surprises 360 campaign. It was a lot of fun to work with a lot of awesome talent. I planned to stay on longer, but I left to pursue an animated TV show deal with Warner Brothers.

I helped launch IBM's cloud website and was in charge of setting design systems for various IBM business verticals.

I was tasked to brainstorm and write some left field ideas and productions for Arby’s.
