Creative Director. Writer. Artist. Occasional Sherpa. For years, I chased the glitter of awards—until I realized the real shine comes from ideas that move people, not judges.
So now I create work with purpose. Call it persuasion—what matters is that it resonates.
Luxury brands, retail, B2B, B2C—different worlds, same truth: every brand is just trying to find its way into someone’s heart. And I help build that bridge.
I’m endlessly fascinated by the quiet poetry of influence. The ad that flickers across your phone. The welcome at a checkout line. The tone, the timing, the tiny spark that makes someone feel something. Even this moment between you and me—are you curious? Unsure? Maybe a little pulled in? Rolling your eyes? Doesn’t matter—you’re still reading, and that’s influence.
Just made this Loom for a job pitch and thought it was good enough to share here.
