experience:

Wieden+Kennedy—Portland and New York, as an Art Director and
Designer, I learned directional skills and an innovative approach
to typography that breaks rules and a proactive way of approaching
imagery. All of which I experimented with and refined for clients
including Microsoft, Calvin Klein.

Goodby, Silverstein & Partners—San Francisco, as an Associate
Creative Director I created advertising campaigns and brand
identities for Banana Republic and HP accounts.

Saatchi & Saatchi—London, as Head of Art & I rebranded the Olay
(P&G) account globally. The work needed a more premium feel and
so I recast models, directors and photographers for global use.

McGarry Bowen—New York, as Creative Director I global rebranding
of Renaissance Hotels and Resorts, as developing a new sub-brand
under the Marriott umbrella—The Marriott Group. More recently,
was instrumental in rebranding and developing new brand work for
