At eight-years-old, I stopped capturing insects and started writing. Ideas between the spaces of those words bred a need to explore ordinary objects, foreign places and new people. Since 1998, I've enjoyed (almost) every minute working with intriguing brands and insightful teams. Currently, I'm the CD at Hooplah in Toronto.
