A Midwest family man who loves a simplistic lifestyle and a solid handshake. After a decade of managing creative direction and marketing, it was time for a change. Bought me a couple of cameras to become a humble button pusher. Decided to walk the world. Always keeping my nose to the wind and my eyes to the skyline. I’ve got a hundred wild stories, chasing wild things in wild places, too many scars to count, third-degree burns, and a dozen fractured bones. There’s a list of awards, creative directors, athletes, operators, brands, public figures, and surgeries written down somewhere… but those stories are best shared around a fire, laughing with food and drink in hand. 

With a keen eye for detail and a Midwesterner’s mindset, creating global campaigns has required more than a creative vision. It’s decades of developing style and trust. It’s an innate sense of ingenuity, grit, and adaptability. It’s a camera bag packed with practical skill sets... anticipating your needs and following through on promises.

FAQS.

  • No bravadoness. No pretentiousness. No worries. No verbal misdirection of synergies, out-of-the-box paradigms, eco-viable business models, or yogababble. Morals, ethics, and values matter. Like a cowboy handshake, I deliver on my promise. That’s my bond.

LET’S GET TO WORK.

Call, text, or send a smoke signal. More than likely I’m on a shoot, wrenching on a K5 Blazer, or chasing two feral boys. Together, we’ll do great things.
