I thrive at the intersection of brand strategy, creative leadership and talent communications with expertise across digital/UX, brand development, CPG, employer branding, B2B/B2C, and agency operations.Over my career, I’ve built and led teams at AMS, Myjive, Saturday and HMH, growing them into respected, award-winning agencies. I’ve guided campaigns for Fortune Global 100s and ambitious challenger brands alike, crafting strategic frameworks and campaign concepts, always focused on the alignment between business objectives and creative vision.Selected accomplishments:AMS: Helped expand the global Brand Consulting team from a handful to 60, built a full-service in-house creative studio, and led work for Merck, Marriott, Toyota, Synchrony, Electrolux and more; reduced $1M+ annual agency spend to fully in-house operations with end-to-end capability.Myjive: Led creative on award-winning digital-first work for Volvo, Mack Trucks, Regal Boats and NAPA Filters; web platforms, immersive digital experiences, augmented reality, social campaigns, animation and video content.
