ECD/GCD/CW. Struggling surfer. Cyclist but not the spandex kind. Fan of film. Lover of music. Father of two. Head Bartender of my basement.

Made fun things with DDB, WPP, MH, V7, VCCP and likely some other letters/numbers I've forgotten. Built billions of pages of decks (and some ads) for Netflix, Blizzard, Lexus, Audi, Subaru, VW, Budweiser, Whiteclaw, Native, Mikes Hard, Bed Bath & Beyond and hundreds more.

Do awards matter? Beats me, but I have quite a number if you care. Notably from Cannes Lions, FWA, ADCC, The Clio Awards, CMA, London International Advertising Awards, New York Festivals, The One Show, The Bessies, The Bill Bernbach Awards, The World Luxury Awards, The Cassies, Awwwards, Applied Arts, The Lotus Awards, The Effies, Marketing Awards, The Atomics, The Webbys, Strategy Magazine, Communication Arts, ITB Berlin and Richmond Minor T-Ball.

I live in Vancouver. I work in LA. It's all very confusing and the commute has never been very good.

Hope that clears things up.
