Strategic problem-solver. Art director. Thinker. Idea Maker.
My work in advertising and branding centers on ideation, innovation, and respecting the process behind designing and building the full voice of the brand from the genAI prompt or post-it with the first idea, to social posts, to digital videos, to brick and mortar print.
Whether on set, in a conference room, collaborating one-on-one, or leading a group, I believe that joyful “creation is content” (Susan Howe) and there is always, always—another idea. (huzzah)
Before and after advertising hours, I mentor creative-entrepreneurs at New Inc, the New Museum’s tech incubator, run miles on the streets of NYC, and design and build custom clothing using a zero-waste approach.
