MY STORY

I went to school for aerospace engineering. And I thought I would become an engineer until I moved to New York City. I stumbled upon advertising by sheer accident. Long story short, after participating in different creative programs such as the D&AD New Blood Shift I built a robust portfolio without going to an ad school and won a wood pencil for “Penguin Backstories” along the way.

That scrappiness, tenacity, and grind are what I most pride myself on and will take with me for the rest of my career.

When I’m not making ads, you can find me behind the camera, doing photography, or at the Dinner Table.

*Dinner Table is a dinner party series where we bring people from all walks of life together over the dinner table to have conversations and make connections.

I run the Dinner Table with two of my friends. And I did all the branding.
