Made by Making
My time as a creative professional, individual contributor, and senior manager have all shaped how I lead as an executive. Here’s a breakdown on how the various parts of my career have left their mark
Video Production
From million dollar TV commercials to budget-friendly compliance training videos, video production is all about plate spinning. Booking actors, scouting locations, choosing equipment, hiring crews—I’ve done it all. On time, and on budget.
This is one of my favorite videos, but if you want to see a lot more, check out my video portfolio.
Art
Breaking down complex shapes, creative problem solving, perspective shifting, and frequent iteration—the never-ending pursuit of improving as an artist has had a huge impact on how I build and lead creative teams. Also I just think drawing is fun (which is why I have a published book). If you’re into looking at art, or you showed up here from the publishing industry, you can find my portfolio here.
Years spent leading copywriters (and working as one myself, once upon a time), has helped me hone my communication skills. I’m great at distilling complex information, clarifying business speak, translating creative ideas, and presenting with wit and passion.
