Nice Guy.
Hi there. I’m an 18-year veteran of former creative juggernaut, Crispin Porter + Bogusky. I joined as a copywriter and rose through the ranks to become VP, Group Creative Director overseeing clients like Volkswagen, IKEA and Domino’s Pizza.
During my tenure at CP+B, I helped to grow the agency from a small creative boutique of 50 people into an internationally recognized industry leader with over 1000 people. The shop was named Agency of the Year nine times and, in 2010, recognized as Worldwide Agency of the Decade.
Since then, I’ve had the incredible good fortune of working with the most talented people in the industry at places like Co: Collective and Circus Maximus in NY and The Community in Miami. There’s nothing I’d love more than to continue my streak of helping make brands famous with you.

Other stuff about me.
I also paint and have had my artwork exhibited during Art Basel, Miami. I’ve had a couple of one-night-stands with open mic comedy and gathered a following of over 26,000 on Twitter with my jokes before the site was acquired by a mercurial billionaire who has since crashed it into the ground like a rocket. I live in Miami with my husband, Jim, and a rascally cat named Noodle.
I view every creative opportunity as a chance to make something that matters. Something that feels like nothing that’s ever been done before. It’s an entrepreneurial approach that I bring to each new challenge that’s afforded me an embarrassment of industry accolades and award show riches for which I’m grateful. Awards include Cannes Lion, London International, Andy, D&AD, Clio, Addy, Obie and Effy. We once won so many One Show Pencils that I was briefly detained at Laguardia by an overzealous TSA agent who thought I was smuggling gold bullion in my duffle bag.
Highlights include Cannes Grand Prix. Twice. Titanium Cannes Lion. The $500,000 Kelly MPA Grand Prize.
