My obsession
As the Director of Innovation and Senior Creative Director at RedPeg Marketing, I've led the charge in transforming our agency's brand. My passion for integrating advanced technologies like AI, AR/VR, and data-driven design has not only enhanced our creative processes but has also catapulted our work to new heights. From crafting immersive experiences for Nike's Learning & Development program to revolutionizing Meta's suite at the Capital One Arena, my work is a testament to the power of creativity and innovation. My journey doesn't stop at the drawing board. With a robust background in 3D design and visualization, I've pioneered architecturally-based problem-solving approaches that have left lasting impressions on brands like GEICO and Marriott. Whether it's designing ESPN X-Games' virtual worlds or leading U.S. Bank's pop-up activations, my projects are infused with a unique blend of strategic thinking and creative flair. At RedPeg, I've been the mastermind behind our creative ethos, fostering a culture where every team member feels empowered to push boundaries and explore new horizons. My leadership has driven us to achieve a 33% increase in creative efficiency, thanks to the implementation of our proprietary "Contextual AI." But it's not all work and no play. My creative spirit thrives on fun and excitement, whether mentoring the next generation of designers as an adjunct professor or collaborating with industry giants to bring visionary concepts to life. Join me on this creative adventure, and let's imagine, innovate, and inspire together.
