In my 25-plus year career career I’ve meandered through large agencies, creative boutiques and digital start-ups. At places like DDB, JWT, Ogilvy, The Leap Partnership and The Royal Order, I’ve been privileged to serve many brands I truly admire including Nike, Miller Brewing Company, Patagonia, Kohler, Flor, Interface, American Airlines and Anheuser-Busch. I’m honored that my work in eCommerce, television, print, radio, outdoor, interactive, film, and direct has been recognized by industry award shows and publications, including The One Show, Cannes Lions, The San Francisco Show, SXSW, The Wall Street Journal, The Chicago Show, The New York and Chicago International Film Festivals, Print, The DMA International Echo Awards, and Communication Arts, among others. I'm co-founder of a disruptive micro-donation platform called iKeedo that turns data from “the enemy” into donations for good causes. For example, imagine that every tweet from Donald Trump triggers donations for progressive causes; and tweets by the NRA automatically generate donations in support of sensible gun regulation. iKeedo is launching during SXSW 2016 to align with President Obamas message: he's calling on us to apply our ideas and talents to make technology work for us – especially when it comes to tackling big challenges like increasing participation in the political process.
