My advertising 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, Häagen-Dazs, Got Milk?, and Emerald Nuts. During my tenure, I helped win new business like Ace Hardware and the Oakland A’s. Returning to my hometown of Los Angeles, I joined TBWA/Chiat/Day, where I worked on high-profile accounts, including Nissan, Infiniti, Visa, Washington Mutual, and the Grammy Awards.

In 2009, I joined David&Goliath as an Associate Creative Director, leading work across the agency’s portfolio, including Kia, Universal Studios, California Lottery, and VIZIO. Over the next decade, I advanced through the organization and was ultimately named Executive Creative Director for Jack in the Box, an account I helped bring to the agency.

In 2019, I joined The Wonderful Agency as Executive Creative Director, overseeing creative leadership across The Wonderful Company’s portfolio of iconic brands, including Wonderful Pistachios, POM Wonderful, FIJI Water, Wonderful 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.
