Experience
Managing Creative Director, NY
Executive Creative Director
R/GA
Experience leading large cross-disciplinary teams on the agency's most important accounts.
On Nike I led creative work across all Nike Brand accounts at the agency including Basketball, Women, Soccer, Football and NSW for over 3 years. This involved directing, collaborating and managing teams totaling 30+ creatives working across a number of concurrent client relationships. Work included building out the Nike OS platform, mobile applications, product and brand experiences, social campaigns and content.
My partner and I ran Ameriprise, the agency's first 360-account, and had to build not just the brand but also a team on the fly as we were creating and launching a ton of new work including national TV, print and online media.
I helped staff the creative leadership for the R/GA Buenos Aires as well as led work and the client engagement for Faena, an important early client for that office.
Most recently I helped win and then creatively lead Google Cloud Platform. With a team of over a dozen we were responsible for brand and campaign platform development.
Throughout I have been involved or led numerous new business efforts including important wins for Google, Samsung, Ameriprise, Nokia, Mastercard and many more.
