General info
Creative Director
Detroit
Detroit
If you're looking for a giant ego, a pretentious tantrum thrower or a tortured artist kind of creative soul, sorry, that's not me. I'm more of a highly motivated roll up your sleeves and let's get this done kind of guy. Whether that's for small pro bono projects that focus on giving back to the community or executing creative for multiple leading Fortune 500 clients.
I believe a challenging environment can inspire creativity. I also believe that creativity should be used to evoke emotions from the soul of the consumer. My attempts to do that have led me to quite a few interesting places and I've gained a wealth of knowledge to go along with it. I've head butt Gary Busey, dodged a tornado with rapper T.I. And been kidnapped by cabbies in Seattle all in the name of getting the clients message out to a masses.
And honestly as a visual person I think it's time for me to end with all the words and say here's to hoping that what you see from me evokes an emotion from within you.
