art + copy
I’m a veteran creative with over 15 years experience and a mixed background in copywriting and art direction. Yep, I do both. Usually one or the other. Either way, I like to think. And stare out the window, piddle around, that kinda stuff. I use command-z a lot. But when I think, I take a holistic approach: words and visuals, right brain and left brain.
I have lots of campaign experience, and I also bring plenty of tactical skills to the table. I write subject lines, I creative direct shoots, I conjure social ideas, I have a strong understanding of messaging funnels and user journeys, and I can even kern.
I have a significant amount of experience in tech, entertainment, e-commerce, and B2B clients, at both in-house and agencies. I’ve actually dabbled in a bunch of spaces, and like a true creative, I’ll figure out how to make great work for anyone.
I live in Brooklyn where I like to play softball, ride a bike, and make miniatures.
