WHAT I DO
I’ve worked in digital, TV, print, non-traditional and social—not just over my career, but often on the same campaign. Because it doesn't matter what ‘space’ it appears in, as long as you make people stand up and take notice. I've helped build and lead large teams across multiple lines of business as well as foster new talent...and tried to have some fun along the way.
