Creative Cultural Engineering
Over the past 20 years, I’ve conceived and developed brand campaigns that focus on foundational interests of consumer psychology. By engaging specific sub-cultures, creating social connection, designing aspirational stories, and multi-modal world building, I create memorable campaigns that transcend the traditional consumer experience.
I specialize in non-traditional campaign ideation, social media, brand strategy, entertainment partnerships, experience design, and creative production team management. I’ve also done extensive work with top tier TV and film talent, earned media work, and production for multi format distribution.
