About ME
My dream of becoming an NBA player died when I stopped growing at a whopping 5’8”. So I sought the next best thing: a degree in sports marketing.
But after working in the industry for a few years, I realized life as an account person just wasn’t creative enough to sustain me. After working at GS&P for about a year, I began hustling to take on any creative projects I could get my hands on (which took some convincing given I had zero real-world creative experience). Luckily I impressed the right people and a few months later was offered a shot at an intern art director position. A short time later, my partner and I were hired on full time and my career had officially shifted.
Since then, I have had the opportunity to produce work for major brands across a variety of industries including Cheetos, Doritos, XFINITY, the Golden State Warriors, and Ancestry, even winning a few awards along the way.
You can now find me in Oakland hanging out with my wife, new daughter, and our two cats (Taco & Beans).
