HOWDY,

I grew up in Vienna.
Not THE One With
Mozart, Beethoven and the Wiener Schnitzel.
THE ONE IN THE SHAWNEE NATIONAL FOREST.
with ONE STOP light and Southern Sensibilities.
Pearl-button Shirts. COUNTRY music. Church twice a week.
In first grade, I wanted to play for the Chicago Cubs.
In Fourth grade, I WANTED TO HELP SEA turtles in TEXAS.
In college, I met a girl and got a camera to impress her. She was not impressed.
After college, I freelanced as A photographer, filmmaker and copywriter.
I worked WITH COMPANIES LIKE Nestlé Purina, Leica, Spotify, Facebook, University of ILLINOIS, Colorado Tourism, and MORE.
I was writing. But not like the writing I loved and admired.
Luke Sullivan, Rob Schwartz, and Carolyn Hadlock helped me work on THAT.
I got my first agency job with Rodgers Townsend DDB, working on Valvoline INSTNT OIL CHANGE, AT&T, YellowstonE Bourbon and a purple Mop Called Rejuvenate.
Today I WRITE FOR Subaru of America at Carmichael Lynch.
I still want to play for the Cubs.
