“Good enough, is not enough”
Bio:
Originally from the Detroit area with a BFA in art & design, I’m a creative director/art director for hire that’s been working for ad agencies and design studios on a wide range of local to global level accounts. I have worked for quite a few shops such as Cramer-Krasselt, MMGY Global, &Barr and Anson Stoner. I specialize in strategic brand campaigns, brand identities and brand creative management, digital marketing and directing & managing photo & video shoots. Pitching creative and maintaining high standards and harmony in a creative department. What does all that mean? Simply put, it’s just creative problem solving. It’s what I do.

:et cetera:
When not creative problem solving I’m either on the tennis court or playing, writing, recording and producing music for three different music projects, across 3 different genres. Although both of those activities include a fair amount of creative problem solving too.
