Before I was a creative director, I was picking crops in farming fields, swinging a hammer on carpentry sites, and running programs in Malawi. None of it looked like a path to leading creative teams for AWS, Norton, or Stifel Financial. But that's kind of the point.

Those years taught me something most agencies won't: that good work requires patience, that the best ideas need room to breathe, and that the person closest to the ground usually sees things the clearest. And most importantly, anything can be creative, anyone can be a creative.

I've spent over a decade leading creative teams across B2B and B2C — blending brand strategy, copywriting, design, and production into work that invites attention with strong insights and engaging narrative. My philosophy is simple: guide, don't dictate. Create the conditions. Let the work bloom. Let the team shine.

The human story is always in there somewhere. My job is to find it, frame it, and give it space to land.

My full resume is below. If you're looking for someone who builds up rather than tears down — let's talk.
