Who I Am
My career started in movies and TV, mostly writing television for kids. Cartoons led to commercials before I joined a start-up, wrote content that garnered a few million views, and went back to creating integrated campaigns at some of the world's finest agencies and biggest companies.
I've been honored to receive a mess of awards, recognition from the mainstream press, and gallery space in the British Museum. And when I'm not leading teams, concepting across platforms, or rousing the rabble, I perform at festivals like Bonnaroo and Austin City Limits with Ikebe Shakedown.
Let's connect and create something exceptional.
