Before that I was Head of Brand & Creative at Grubhub. Previously I built brands at Known where I led our work for TikTok ( earning them AdAge Marketer of the Year ), Rockefeller Center ( which led to their historic rebranding ), Shift4 (where we worked with SpaceX and St Jude on the first all civilian mission to space – creating a Super Bowl Campaign, Netflix series and tons more), as well as others.
Formerly, I was a founding partner at Great Big Story ( sadly shut down ) where I led Brand & Creative Partnerships. I’ve also designed and built the brand and original can designs for Lord Hobo Brewing Company .
I’ve had the pleasure of working with a bunch of other great brands: Nike, Yahoo, Nomadica, MINI, Hasbro, Mattel, Dreamworks, Daniel Boulud, and Johnny Cupcakes.
