After graduating from St. Olaf College in 2000, I began my career as an interactive art director working on brands like Porsche, Harley-Davidson, BMW and Nordstrom. For the next 10+ years as a creative director, I led campaign work for Apple, Sperry, Target, Riot Games and Walmart. Along with driving business results, I've also won some awards along the way including Cannes, One Show, Clios, Graphis and Communication Arts.

An opportunity arose for me to go client side for a passion brand of mine, Altra Running. As the internal Creative Director I helped build & manage an internal creative department, create seasonal campaigns, email marketing, event marketing, social media, product launches, seasonal lifestyle and studio photo shoots.

For the past 5 years I've been working remotely for the talented folks at Familiar Creatures in Richmond, VA. Crunch Fitness, Duke's Mayo, BUBBA burger, Kernel Seasons, Hardywood Park Craft Brewery and Spice Hunter are just a handful of brands that I've been fortunate to work on.
