The Background & Stack St. Louis → Global Broadcasts

DIY Underground Roots

My career didn't start in a boardroom; it started in the St. Louis underground music scene. When you tour in independent bands, you do everything yourself: record the tracks, book the dates, design the artwork, and print the merch. That hands-on obsession with building things from scratch shaped my entire career.

The Modern Creative Stack

Over the past decade, I’ve worked across product marketing at Fortune 500s like AT&T, founded e-commerce ventures, and self-taught the tools of the modern creative stack—from motion graphics and typography to audio engineering and Python. And more recently I've introduced a multitude of AI tools into my productive workflow.

Bridging Instinct & Technical Execution

Whether it's shaping audience retention, dialling in sound design, or scaling a channel's digital footprint, I bridge creative instinct with technical execution. Let’s connect and talk about what we can build next.
