    Monkey Budget is a comedy-first agency for B2B brands. We specialize in comedic messaging, video, live event programming, and training to help B2B companies entertain and engage their audiences.I lead the agency’s creative and strategic direction. That includes guiding brand messaging, shaping campaign concepts, and overseeing execution across video, copy, and live content. I run our Writers’ Room, supervise editing and script development, and often direct our video work.I lead strategic partnerships that expand our creative reach and bring new opportunities to our clients and collaborators. I consult directly with brands to find the smartest, most effective ways to integrate comedy into their marketing.Occasionally, I’m responsible for disposing of cursed props no one remembers buying.
