I take ambitious ideas from concept to reality for founders and C-suite executives. For the past decade, that's meant serving as COO, Head of Strategy, and creative partner to some of the most ambitious projects in experiential design, innovation consulting, and brand development. 

​

My range of experience was built across a decade at Beneville Studios, where, in partnership with the founders, I designed and led a pivot that fundamentally changed the business: a shift from confidential private commissions for families from the Forbes Billionaires List (profiled in Graydon Carter’s AirMail), into a boutique innovation consulting firm and concept development agency for C-Suite executives and ownership groups. 

​

I joined the Beneville team as Art Director, refocused on Strategy, and ultimately was asked to take the lead as COO. Leveraging our existing network of clients, a reputation for cross-disciplinary problem-solving, and the intrigue of our private portfolio, I developed the operational model, built the practice, assembled the team, and led the delivery of work that went beyond the brief. The result was award-winning work for our clients, 2.5x growth for the business, and the strongest revenue and profitability in the firm's history.

​

That work spans public landmarks (including the Empire State Building Observatory, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, AREA15, iHeartMedia’s NYC headquarters, and Manchester City F.C.’s Etihad Campus), private consulting to a Head of State, and million-dollar confidential heirlooms commissioned in an edition of 1-of-1.

​

Since 2022, I’ve brought that same dedication to independent advisory work, notably as a partner to Steed + Friends, with clients including Sakara Life, Ursa Major, LORE Fragrances, a celebrity-led beauty brand, and a forthcoming wearable tech company.

​

I believe in Good Work, Done Well, by Good People. If you’re building something ambitious and need the thinking to match, I’d love to hear from you.
