About

I believe creative solutions can solve business problems.

I love creating big ideas that move the needle without forgetting to have fun along the way. For over a decade I’ve worked across diverse categories and marketing channels, honing skills in brand building, selling ideas, and developing award winning teams—while always solving creative challenges strategically.

I’ve been drawing and creating for as long as I can remember, always ready to fill the next sheet of paper. I’ve never lost that creative spirit. It led me into this industry as a graphic designer and art director, and I’ve grown into a compelling creative leader.

Originally from northeast Ohio, I’ve called Chicago home since 2012, where my wife, our two sons and a wild French bulldog keep things interesting. I’ve long been a die-hard Simpsons fan, I can often be found watching sports of almost any kind and I’ve got a fairly large collection of whiskey amassing in my basement.

If you want to know more I’d love to chat over a coffee or even a glass of bourbon.
