I work strategically to deliver creative concepts that allow brands to effectively communicate with their audience.

I have a wealth of advertising agency experience designing print & digital elements and art-directing moving-image & photography. My work has influenced impactful and effective campaigns for the world’s biggest brands.

I have taken spare-room side-hustles and made them prosper. In only 2 years I have taken Concrete Goods from a hobby and turned it into a NYT-featured company that’s stocked in 30+ stores worldwide and making 150+ sales a month in direct to customer business.
