Brands, launches, and systems built on an insight instead of a mood board. I build the thinking and then I build the thing, so nothing gets lost between the deck and the delivery.
Let's talk ↗Trusted by the best.
Sony came back four times. Adorama, three. An Emmy, a Rockies Best of Show, and an agency grown 4x while I led creative. Repeat clients are the stat I trust: it means the thinking held and the work... worked.

Big new ideas don't always have a script.
The pitch
Your agency has a big one on the calendar and needs senior firepower in the room.
The pinch hitter
Stepping in to lead a team around an idea.
On set
The energy on set speaks to my soul.
The team lead
Managing creatives is like wrangling cats.
The culture lens
I have my finger on the pulse of culture.
“When it comes to creative strategy, I've never questioned that DJ would produce work our team would be proud of. He knows his own strengths but also knows when to delegate to others, providing a well-rounded perspective that allows a project to thrive.”
“DJ is a true artist who isn't afraid to get dirty (or lose sleep) to get the job done right and on time. He's been a team captain on multiple projects over the years that always ended in a W. Most of all, he's a pure-hearted human who always looks out for others first and puts as much empathy into his relations as he does intention into his craft. Book him before someone else does. You will not be disappointed.”
“He was clear about what he needed and always made me feel empowered to explore my creative impulses while staying true to his creative direction. Can't wait to work with him again!”
“He brings the vibes. He embodies every role with a spirit of excellence. He has a very special gift of bringing the best out of everyone on the team and he elevates every project to its highest potential.”
“Well, DJ nailed it, it is timeless, clean, and best of all recognizable. I would highly recommend DJ for design work as he will present you with options from safe to pushing the boundaries which is exactly what you want to make informed decisions.”
Let's build something
worth remembering.
