ACD Art | Creative Lead

About

I’m a Chicago-based, Geriatric Millennial™ with a BFA from the University of Kansas, and I started my career at VMLY&R Kansas City right after college, Great Recession be damned. I spent my formative years (and then some) in Kansas City, working on a number of different accounts with incredibly talented people. I find that the best work comes when the team dynamic is fun, because if we ain’t laughin’…amirite? Teamwork makes the dream work.

Most recently, I’ve been working as an Associate Creative Director with my partner, Francis LaBelle, navigating adventures in advertising. Here's my resume. Let’s connect!
