Hi, I am a Minneapolis-based Associate Creative Director/Copywriter. I like to make culturally resonant, attention-grabbing work based on smart insights. I also like to make extremely dumb work that makes me laugh, still based on smart insights.

Outside of work, I enjoy:
Reading, piano, bossa nova, scented candles, food, movies, travel, jazz fusion, antiques, collecting rocks, stationery, coffee, nature, ragdoll cats, architecture, and timelapse restoration videos.
