Smaller Projects: Logo refreshes, social media graphics, presentations, website assets, and targeted updates to keep your brand consistent across every platform.
Why work with me:
- 15+ years across tech, entertainment, e-commerce, retail, and education

A Creative Director for Entertainment, Sports & Media who works as a trusted Creative Partner to help ambitious, audience-facing brands tell stories that matter.
Great ideas deserve to be seen, understood, and remembered.
As a Creative Director, I partner with brands, creators, and organizations to transform ideas into compelling presentations, media kits, websites, and promotional experiences that captivate audiences and inspire confidence—helping you attract audiences, investors, sponsors, and new opportunities.
My work spans film, television, sports, music, live events, and other audience-facing brands, with projects ranging from film and television pitch decks to investor presentations, media kits, sponsorship decks, and promotional websites. Combining strategic thinking, design, copywriting and AI-enhanced creative tools, I help clients shape stories that elevate brands, engage audiences, and stand out in competitive markets.
I believe the best creative work happens through partnership. That's why many of my clients view me as a Creative Partner rather than a traditional freelancer—someone they trust to shape the story, elevate the brand, and guide the creative process from concept to completion.
My approach is simple: the 3D Creative Process—Discovery, Development, and Delivery.
1 • DISCOVERY
Understand your vision, audience, and goals.
2 • DEVELOPMENT
Shape the story, messaging, and visual experience.
3 • DELIVERY
Refine every detail and prepare materials that are ready to impress.
SELECTED HIGHLIGHTS:
• Created a feature film pitch deck that helped attract a Martin Scorsese attachment for a project now in post-production
• Developed a TV pitch deck that led to an in-person Netflix meeting
• Branded and built a survivor's online platform—creating the identity, website, and content strategy that transformed a deeply personal story into a movement, leading to a TEDx Talk, a feature in People Magazine, and a devoted community of followers sharing similar experiences.
• Developed a personal brand and media kit for a Major League Baseball All-Star pitcher that continues to support sponsorship opportunities and brand growth
• Experience includes projects for: National Hockey League, NFL, Sports Illustrated Kids, Nike, Hasbro, FAO Schwarz, Comedy Central, TNT, USA Networks, Hulu, Warner Bros., Google, American Express, and Coca-Cola.
