About Me

Seth Godin said it best. “Instead of wondering when your next vacation is, maybe you ought to set up a life you don’t need to escape from.” My thoughts exactly. Life is too short to live and work like a zombie. Even when things are stressful. Even when it’s Monday.
I’m driven by passion, purpose, & results. I think the best problem-solving is both creative and strategic and apply both in everything I do. I’m a “big picture” guy with an eye for detail, and get a rush from developing new ideas and pushing the boundaries of business and culture.
A few random, rambling thoughts:
• Business, lifestyles, values and culture are changing rapidly.
• If brands don’t keep up with (and initiate) these changes, they’re sunk.
• Our responsibility as creative professionals is to galvanize this change.
• It’s essential to transcend the status quo and build a better world.

Connection is all that counts
Let’s connect! I’m always open to meeting new people, sharing ideas, and brainstorming new ways of branding and making the world a better place. I’m available for creative projects, coffee, beer, and speaking engagements.
