Hello.

// Elevator bio.

Got a degree in psychology in order to study how people think.

Worked as a traffic manager and producer for ad agencies, to learn how things are made. 

Started a couple of creative studios to explore and refine my creative approach.

Currently chopping words and thoughts at Ikon Pass (link), where I lead copy and craft creative.


// The nicest thing anyone has ever said (about me).

Matt's worked with me in many capacities. He's a polymath and can do anything: shoot amazing photography, traffic digital, print and broadcast work, and produce the heck out of photo shoots. Working with Matt is fantastic. The guy is super buttoned up. I always know that he'll have thought through every possible angle and contingency for our projects. In addition, he exudes a calmness in the face of impossible deadlines, client curveballs, and ridiculous production demands. All rare traits. I can't say enough good things about this guy. I give him 5 stars out of 4.

Starting in the depths of winter this year (2021), I lit a learning fire and tucked into the warmth of IDEO’s creative leadership curriculum. The “Foundations in Creative Leadership” series is comprised of three courses where I gained skills in leading for creative ideation, improving my collaboration, and storytelling for sellthrough and influence. ideo is a leading global design and innovation company, and I’m stoked to carry these new skills into my current and future roles.
