Content Strategist / Producer  //  Operating since 2016

Content that
moves culture.
Built at scale.

I lead digital, social, and marketing productions for Kona Big Wave (Anheuser-Busch). Before that — Senior Manager of Content at Overtime and employee #4 at GumGum. A decade building stories that earn attention.

How I work

Strategy.
Production.
Distribution.

Three phases. One operator. From whiteboard to wrap to scale — I run the brief end to end. No agency stack. No hand-off gaps.

01 // Strategy
Brief

Brand voice, content pillars, channel strategy, calendar, KPIs. The annual playbook that turns a brand into a publisher.

01
02 // Production
Build

Concept → script → shoot → edit. Series, branded content, talent features, social-native creative. Multi-market, multi-platform, end to end.

02
03 // Distribution
Ship

Publishing, paid, talent amplification, post-cut analytics, learnings looped back into the next sprint. The work doesn't end at delivery.

03
Why hire me

Brand and
culture in the
same operator.

There is no shortage of strategists. There is a shortage of operators who can own a brand voice, run the production, and ship the cut — without losing the thing that made it culturally interesting in the first place. That is what I do.

01
Strategy + Execution
End-to-end
operator

Most strategists don't ship. Most producers don't strategize. I do both — from annual brand playbooks to final cut. One source of truth, no translation tax.

02
Cultural fluency
Music. Surf.
Skate. Sport.

A decade embedded in the verticals. Talent relationships with @stickfigure, @erickoston, @sageerickson, @bradenhoban — culture-credible content the audience can smell from a mile away.

03
Data-driven
Numbers, not
vibes

Built rate cards that grew deal size 20%. Valued NBA jersey patches with computer vision. I love the craft — and I close the spreadsheet before I shoot.

Point of view

The brands
winning are the
ones that move
at culture speed.

Most brands are still trying to win attention with last quarter's playbook. The work that breaks through is built by operators embedded in the actual culture — not adjacent to it, not commenting on it, in it.

Kona Big Wave outgrew Pacifico by 800% on Instagram in two years. That's not an algorithm story — that's a content operator story. It's what happens when a brand stops outsourcing voice and starts running its own playbook.

// THE CASE

The brands winning right now are the ones with content that could not have been made any other way — by a team that actually lives in the world they're publishing into. That's the operator I am, and the work I deliver.

Selected work

Productions.
Campaigns. Series.

A working selection across content strategy, production, and partnerships — from beer brands to basketball networks to NBA jersey patches.

BriefThe NBA's first jersey patch program had no benchmark. Help teams price the asset, value the impressions, and pitch sponsors using computer-vision media value rather than guesswork.
ApproachBuilt the GumGum Sports valuation engine on the team side. Consulted directly with 25 of 30 NBA franchises on inaugural deals — broadcast measurement, social impressions, partner narrative. Closed Warriors / Rakuten ($18M), Nets / Infor ($12M), Suns / PayPal ($7M) among others.
Outcome$37M+ in disclosed first-year deal value. Category has since grown into a multi-billion dollar sponsorship line item across the league.
