Strategist/Trainer/Author
An OG Account Planner at DDB, BBDO, Cole&Weber and The Richards Group turned OG remote solo-preneur working with the likes of Wieden+Kennedy. Primarily an insight gatherer and brand/communications strategist, I had to teach strategic people to be more creative and creative people to be more strategic and teach them all how to create and nurture ideas together--this began in my agency life and translated to helping clients with creative development (both internally and with their external agencies.) My books (How to Write a Killer Brief and Momentum) have been the foundational artifacts for many company offsites (such as adidas, Nike, ServiceNow, etc.) I collect fabulous living situations (houseboats, high rises, country retreats) and am ever in search of the perfect eggs benedict and croissant.
