If we met at a dinner party, and you asked, I might say…
I work in advertising.
I might also say I’m a writer.
I’ve definitely worked for brands you know.
Certainly, I’ve toiled and failed at just as many companies you’ve never heard of.
If pressed, I’d probably say…
Before my gig at Rocket, I was helping to make it okay for folks in America and the UK to get “the jab” as Head of Creative at Walgreens/Boots.
Before that, I was helping to integrate two massive brands: CVS and Aetna.
Before that, I was leading global teams at DAS/Omnicom.
Before that, I was developing award-winning ideas at Publicis.
Before that, I was pitching jokes as a sitcom writer.
Before that, I was launching breakthrough digital experiences at Sapient.
Before that, I was learning how to make cool stuff at Staples and Timberland.
Before that, I was painting things professionally.
Before that, I was painting things illegally.
Before that, I was… well actually I don’t remember what I was doing before that, but I’m sure I was an adorable little guy asking a lot of questions
