Let’s drink coffee from a stainless steel thermos, the kind with the red plastic cup. Let’s cut to the chase, cut through the double-speak and jargon and talk to people in a direct and honest way. And let’s make your marketing dollars work hard, as hard you do.
My dad worked in a foundry as a mold and core maker. It was a physically demanding and dangerous job. Now I’m not trying to equate what I do to working in a hot and dirty factory. But I’d like to think that his work ethic and get-it-done values have been passed along to me.
As an award-winning Copywriter/Creative Director based in Seattle, my 20 years of combined experience in traditional advertising, direct marketing, B2B and interactive gives me a unique set of skills.
I’ve been fortunate enough to have won a few creative awards for excellence, including The One Show, Cannes, and CLIO awards and was named one of the top ten copywriters in the nation by Adweek’s Winners magazine.
I’ve taught at the School of Visual Concepts and am currently on the American Advertising Federation’s list of judges for Washington State.

But it doesn’t stop there. I’ll make sure your story is told in every piece of your marketing communication—from advertising and digital to mobile and social.
Think of me as the blue-collar worker of the white-collar world. Just like you, I show up to work every day ready to work hard and to get things done.
