I’m a Chicago-based Art Director and Geriatric Millennial™ with a BFA from the University of Kansas. I started my career at VML Kansas City, spending my formative years gaining creative experience on clients like Gatorade, Kellogg’s, Southwest Airlines and Wendy’s.
Most recently, I’ve been working as an Associate Creative Director at Leo (formerly Burnett) Chicago with my Copywriter partner, Francis LaBelle, navigating adventures in advertising as both freelancers and full-timers.
I’ve been in the industry for 16+ years and I am certain the best work comes when the vision is shared through collaborative integrity. Teamwork makes the DREAM work and I’ve been a team-player from the beginning. Here's my résumé. Let’s connect!
