Hello/Hej,

I’m a freelance advertising copywriter and associate creative director from New York who now lives in the faraway land of Copenhagen, Denmark.

While my address has changed and it’s much harder to find a decent slice of pizza, my passion for this crazy business is unwavering. I’m a firm believer that advertising doesn’t have to be a recurring annoyance that has people scrambling for the skip button. An ad can turn heads, entertain, and make people feel something. I hope you’ll find that some of the work I’ve played a part in creating achieves this – and I can’t wait to make more.

Places I’ve Worked

  • The LEGO Group – Freelance Creative Consultant, 2023-present

  • TBWA New York – Associate Creative Director, 2021-2023

  • DiMassimo Goldstein – Senior Copywriter / ACD, 2015-2021

  • JWT New York – Copywriter, 2011-2015
