Writing about myself is hard.

 

After all, I've spent the last 25 years writing about others. And I'm pretty good at it, too.

​

The highlights?

 

Growing lettuce on a billboard...Inspiring teens girls to turn fridges into race cars....Challenging would-be Green Berets to use brains as well as brawn...Writing radio spots inspired by the tale of non-fat-eating Jack Sprat and his non-lean-eating wife...Showing the mediocre skills of un-ninja-like ninjas.​..Making home shopping presenters uncomfortable...To name but a few.​

​

That's the writer part.

​

But some of my proudest work moments have been as a creative director,
mentoring young creatives, and as a teacher, helping would-be creatives put their portfolios together.

​

I've also traveled the world teaching clients to be better clients, especially when it comes to writing briefs and developing strategy and evaluating creative.

​

When I'm not working, I like spending time with my wife and four daughters (that's me as seen by my four-year-old on the left). I love listening to music way too loud for a man of my age, reading 1940s American crime fiction, and fantasizing about wearing a fedora and spats to work one day.
