An Overview

• Past

I started my career cross-pollinating advertising with a new burgeoning digital landscape. I feel fortunate to have navigated a variety of different creative worlds in this period.

From developing global digital campaigns in LA with the likes of SONY, Universal, and Paramount, to adopting newfound technology and expert storytelling with Goodby, Wieden + Kennedy, and BBDO. I’ve learned the nuances of complex narratives requiring local to global reframing.

_ Present

I’ve developed a passion for organizational design and an understanding of the nuances of leadership, management, and mentorship over the past 8 years. While at Squarespace, I oversaw the web design group, which was responsible for the front-end design and development of the .com. I founded Web Concepts, a bespoke team focusing on high-level innovation for the company.

During my tenure at WeTransfer, I was tasked with building an internationally recognized creative studio, growing it from 17 to 52 people. Emmy’s, D&AD, and an Oscar followed suit during this period.

I founded IAAH in 2007. It has continued to serve as a multidisciplinary studio focused on experimentation, and bespoke engagements. An outlet for creative expression.

Whether bearing the title of a creative director, design lead, strategist, or designer, my focus remains on contributing significantly. I am actively seeking collaborations with forward-thinking brands, startups, and entities that embrace a holistic, creative approach, all while striving to effect positive change.
