I'm a hands-on creative leader helping brands earn fans and founders start up.

I'm currently supporting Monks, an AI-first global creative agency, as a Creative Director on the Google account.
I'm always on the lookout for interesting projects at Studio Josef, my independent creative consultancy that partners with founders and brands to build the future.
Previously, I was Head of Brand and Creative at MuseWorks Labs – working on BWAYX.com, the premiere destination for Broadway digital collectibles.
Earlier, I was a Group Creative Director at BCW Global (now Burson) where we built an agile and resilient creative team while helping the post-merger agency and its clients navigate the COVID-19 pandemic, a global economic crisis, a US presidential election, and historic social change. I left at the end of 2021 to build the future.
I also did a substantial stint as a creative director at Edelman, where we transformed the largest PR firm in the world into an award-winning creative agency – building a global creative practice rooted in earned thinking; attracting a network of creatives and unique collaborators across the agency; and incubating new product offerings and teams that redefined the agency's identity.
Earlier in my career, I worked with Novio, Eleven (now Mekanism), and Bedrock Brands (acquired by EY).
Swing by my home café – Martinez Espresso – to take a peek at what I’m brewing lately.
