With more than 15 years of experience talking to every kind of audience that matters to an organization both inside and outside your walls, I know you must understand the people before you create the message. I take a journalistic approach to get to the reality behind the full cycle of your challenges. I’m as comfortable talking to a heroin dealer as I am a hospital CEO (and I’ve interviewed both in the same day). I believe a creative is only as good as their willingness to understand the true nature of the organizations they create for.

My 98-year old grandfather left me an inheritance generous enough to do my own thing. I won’t politic for a full time role or string projects along for extra hours with one eye on a job somewhere else. From Pearl Harbor to being the Great Grandfather to my children, I will honor the gift of his life’s legacy by focusing on what really matters: Doing the work and making a difference .

I bring my consultant mindset to your projects to help stakeholders at all levels build faster and more rewarding processes, from ideation to approvals and measurement. My background as a facilitator helps yield meaningful conversations and structured frameworks that build campaigns and executive personal brands around genuine strengths. From the national security world to advertising agencies, I will bring these fresh perspectives to your teams and leaders.
