My career began in 2000 when I landed a job at Fallon NY. I was thrilled, working on brands like Time Magazine, USTA, ABC Sports, Conseco and Starbucks. From there, I headed west to Goodby Silverstein & Partners in San Francisco where I worked on Hewlett Packard, Saturn, Budweiser, Haagen Daaz, Got Milk and Emerald Nuts. During my time at Goodby, I helped win new business like Ace Hardware and the Oakland A’s. I then moved back to my hometown of Los Angeles to marry my high school sweetheart and join TBWA/Chiat/Day where I worked on Nissan, Infiniti, Visa, Washington Mutual and the Grammy Awards.
In 2009, I joined David&Goliath as an Associate Creative Director working on every brand at the agency including KIA, Universal Studios and VIZIO. I quickly rose through the ranks to become the Executive Creative Director of Jack in the Box, the account I helped win.
In 2019, I left David&Goliath to join the Wonderful Agency as the Executive Creative Director of Wonderful Pistachios, POM Wonderful, Halos Citrus and Teleflora.
When I’m not working, I enjoy family time with my lovely wife and adorable daughters. When I’m not enjoying family time, I can be found pathetically reenacting my favorite Kobe moments unsuccessfully on the basketball court.

Sadly, no one believes this is real. Mainly because I had much more hair back then.
