Photographer/Graphic Designer

I’m a creative producer and writer who has worked with artists and brands around the world, including Chobani, adidas, The North Face, Stella Artois, Absolut Vodka, Audi, and Apple. I’m currently VP of Creative Production at Chobani, where I’m helping shape the in-house agency model of the future. In my free time, I write poetry and film scripts, and I’m currently developing a script about my family’s immigration story and their escape from a civil war. My work has been recognized at award shows such as Cannes Lions, D&AD, The One Show, ADC, and FWA, and has been featured in publications including Fast Company, Rolling Stone, The Wall Street Journal, and The New York Times.
