About me

I'm a creative director who likes to take on big, complex businesses that involve multiple agencies, multiple offices, various media, intricate politics, and numerous, simultaneous projects.
I'm currently an ECD at BBDO San Francisco. Matt Miller and I oversee the agency's creative output. For several of our clients, we also foster collaboration among our creative counterparts at clients' other agencies. The goal is to maximize the contributions of the each member of the multi-agency team to make the work the best it can be. I've had similar roles on Bank of America, Lowe's, HP business-to-business, and some Johnson&Johnson brands.

But I think the most fun I've had in advertising so far was heading up creative development on M&M's for 11 years with Susan Credle as my partner. We overhauled the two main characters and created new ones. Our holiday commercial, "Faint," ran for the 19th straight year this past December.
