I’m an award-winning Creative Director with years of experience bringing vision and efficiency in fast-paced, high-growth environments. I’ve managed creative teams at Fortune 500 companies, helped reinvent e-commerce and user experience at beloved brands, and have pushed emerging startups to the next level. My work developing creative for the parenting media brands Scary Mommy, The Dad, and Fatherly, and for the podcast-first media company CAFE contributed to their successful acquisitions by BDG (Bustle Digital Group) and Vox Media, respectively.

Outside of work, I like to shoot hoops with my kids, drink lots of coffee, and ride my bike around town. I love a good roadtrip and am five stadiums away from visiting all the ballparks in the United States (ask me about my favorites!).

I’m also the co-founder of the Strategic Branding Agency Ugly Wolf.
