I’ve been freelancing at agencies and for brands developing their stories across various platforms.
Prior to that I was at TBWA/Chiat/Day, a formative experience, and spent a good portion working on automotive, financial and packaged goods brands.
Before Chiat, I was at McCann Ericsson New York where I had some wonderful opportunities working on MasterCard, Microsoft, Coca Cola and the launch of the original Xbox.
My work has been recognized at Cannes Lion, Communication Arts, Creativity, Adweek, Art Director’s club, London International Advertising and many others.
