Nutshell: Gentle midwestern crop, audiophile, friend to small things. Father to one small person and one large dog.
Long-form: I cut my teeth as a copywriter with the e-commerce giant Hayneedle while balancing two education-focused non-profit jobs and working as an actor and playwright.
I learned to turn creative ideas into highly effective strategic campaigns at the Simple Machines Marketing Agency in Chicago.
In that time, I found an artistic home with The New Coordinates – a company that devises, writes, and produces world-premiere plays.
Today I support the SaaS all-star, RadarFirst, in Portland, where I currently work as the Senior Manager of Brand & Content.
