About

I’m an award-winning copywriter turned art director with a decade of experience working on some of Canada’s largest brands.

I’m a self-proclaimed advertising nerd. I believe in the power of ideas and their ability to influence the world. My favourite work is insightful, simple, and unexpected. Beyond advertising, my other creative outlets include photography and graphic design.

On weekends you can find me in the mountains camping, hiking, or snowboarding. I also father the world’s happiest dog, Jasper.
