As a Creative Director and Group Creative Director, I have developed and executed strategic, effective and intuitive multichannel creative and branding campaigns for a vast array of clients. Companies like GM, Ford, Subway, Anheuser-Busch, Sears, UPS, Nuveen and Bayer (to name a few) to smaller ones, like The MCA, The Kindling Group, The Museum of Contemporary Photography at Columbia, The State of Illinois and The City of Chicago.
The environments I’ve worked in have ranged from doing the work myself to managing teams of over 30 people. I’ve worked at small, creatively driven agencies with a small but focused staff of thirty people to creative departments of over 150, handling international brands at companies like Ogilvy & Mather and DDB.
I’ve developed strategies, managed research, conceived the ideas, managed teams, presented and executed the campaigns.
I have particularly enjoyed rebranding the likes of Saturn for GM, Bud Light at Anheuser-Busch, UPS, CDW, Sears, Miller as well as for non-for-profit efforts like The Lake Michigan Federation, Openlands project etc.
With many of those clients I’ve conceived and produced work that spans guerrilla-style environmental communication to experiential executions. From international broadcast branding campaigns to short content pieces on youtube and Instagram.
