Skateboarder / Art Director.
Growing up with graffiti and skateboarding as creative outlets, my first design work was a board graphic for the local skate shop I rode for in California.
I started my career as an art director for Studio J, a creative studio run by John and Janet Jay, specializing in lifestyle design ranging from interiors, branding, and product development. I then worked as a creative at GX, an agency within Wieden+Kennedy led by W+K Partner and Trustee John Jay. Clients included Ace Hotel, Shiseido Global, Green Zebra Grocery, Designphil Japan, TuneIn, and Nike.
As a freelance creative, I have directed successful brand campaigns, social, digital design, activations, and exhibits for Nike, Dodge, Chrysler, adidas, and Google.
I'm currently working full time in Global Brand Creative at Nike World Headquarters in Beaverton, Oregon.
