creative director. artist. musician.
At some point in my thirties, my hair bailed on me. So, in the words of Jack T. Colton, it became functional to wear many hats: writer, director, designer, trombonist, vocalist, synth-smearer, agitator, therapist and dad. However, most days I identify as a creative director. On the nose of a week that can mean pitch writing or proposal creation. The squishy midsection? Engaging a heap of designers, developers, editors or copywriters. And the tail could be directing a video or a photoshoot or brainstorming a new logo or wine label. Or discussing the merits of analog tape delay with some erstwhile musicians or working on the next great American album—okay that one’s a stretch—hopefully over cold beers. And if you got this far, I owe you a beverage.
