About me

I have built a career around helping organizations defy the odds, transforming brands, businesses, and creative cultures into category leaders.

As a global creative and brand transformation leader, I've helped turn around iconic agencies, led award-winning work across continents, and delivered record-breaking business results for some of the world's most iconic brands, proving that breakthrough creativity can drive both cultural impact and commercial growth.

My work has been recognized by every major award show, including the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity (pictured above - I'm the one wearing a blue sport coat and effusive grin), the Primetime Emmy Awards, and the Academy Awards, but what motivates me most is helping people and organizations unlock their true potential.

I have also been a judge at every major award show in the industry, including Ad Stars in Busan, Korea where I was the keynote speaker. Some of my other prominent speaking engagements: The . Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University, NYU's Tisch School of the Arts, The One Club and The Ad Club of New York.

Today, my focus is increasingly on the future of creativity: how organizations navigate AI, brand transformation, talent development, and cultural relevance in a rapidly changing world.
