hello

I’m an Executive Creative Director with 25 years of experience building brands and experiences that move people and culture. I blend strategy, storytelling, emotion, and emerging technology to create work with heart, integrity, and impact — from global rebrands to immersive, purpose-driven narratives.

Signal to Noise Podcast discussion with Felipe Carvallo about my career, collaborations and goals

Beauty in the Chaos

I’m drawn to the kinetic energy inside every creative challenge — finding intuitive patterns and shaping beauty from chaos. As a surfer, I adapt to shifting forces, seeking balance and flow — and I bring that mindset to every collaboration.


With a fluid directing approach, I fuse live-action in-camera VFX with motion graphics, CG, and Unreal to craft:

  • product launch films
  • brand anthems
  • commercials + campaigns
  • title sequences
  • music-driven content
  • experiential activations
  • and everything else I do not yet know


A generous creative spirit drives everything I do — sharing waves of opportunity through mentorship, talks, conferences, charity work, and community-driven projects that turn unexpected moments into meaningful movements.


AI is part of my creative toolkit — helping me clarify ideas, explore new visual languages, and design human-centered experiences at enterprise scale.


I’m available for freelance Executive Creative Director and Live-Action / In-Camera VFX Director roles, and open to teaching, workshops, and collaborative storytelling projects across art, design, motion, and experiential worlds.


Always evolving. Always human.

I’m also actively seeking opportunities to share and expand this healing, creative process with the world.


What began as a personal metamorphosis — turning pain into pixels, scars into symbols, chaos into flow — has evolved into a creative practice grounded in presence, curiosity, and human truth.This work lives across: art, design, teaching and experiential storytelling;

guided by one question: 

How can what we feel become something that moves us forward?


Thank you for the music: Brandon Markell Holmes Toucan Sounds, Robert PM, and Ada Whitney for the opportunity to share this with your SVA students.
