I’m a Creative Director currently based in South Portland, Maine with a passion for brand and a penchant for elevating and stewarding the paths of talented creatives.
For 15 years, I've worked across industries of all stripes, leading teams both large and small, in-house and at agencies. I'm adept at translating complicated brand ideas into smart, compelling solutions and come to life when working shoulder-to-shoulder with client teams.
An insatiable curiosity for all things (literally all of the things) propels me into the world every day and informs everything that I do. As a creative leader, I strive to afford my teams opportunity to lean into their curiosity by fostering open spaces experiment, fail, collaborate, and ultimately arrive at a place of newness, surprise, and solution.
I’m hands-on but never prescriptive, trusting but eager to guide and explore, process agnostic, and work with rather than for companies and organizations around the world.
When I'm not waist deep in creative, you can find me neck deep in the ocean, tinkering on old motorcycles, or exploring the world with my family.
