CREATIVE CONSULTANT + TASTE DIRECTOR + FIXER +
ABOUT ME
I create gravity around people, products, places, and ideas.
Founders, artists, and public figures hire me for original ideas, considered opinions, and creative decisions they need someone to own. They also call when something isn’t landing and needs to be fixed.
I shape the idea, write it, direct the people who make it, and make the call when you can’t be in the room. I work with your team or hire and manage collaborators as the brief requires. I trained as a journalist and spent more than 15 years in television and advertising before going independent.

WHO I WORK WITH
-
Founders
Your business has outgrown how it looks and sounds. Brand sprints and monthly creative direction for founder-led teams preparing to launch, raise, or grow.
-
Agencies + Brands
A senior creative director when you need one. Freelance creative direction, plus-ups, and team workshops, by the day, week, or project.
-
Artists + Public Figures
For the moments that change how you’re seen. Media training, presentation coaching, speechwriting, launch and appearance direction, and ongoing advisory, handled discreetly.
-
Private Commissions
Some work doesn’t fit a package. Personal projects that deserve more than the obvious answer, from a gesture for someone you love to the art and objects you live with.
