Creative director · New York

Creative director.
I ship the code too.

A decade of creative direction for Meta, the New York Stock Exchange, and Ernst & Young. Now I build the software my own discipline runs on.

02 · The numbers

Set in mono. Tabular alignment for free, and it reads as terminal output rather than marketing.

03 · Cashtag Awards

An awards show at the NYSE, and a promo deadline that had already started.

The landing page went live in 48 hours.

An awards show at the New York Stock Exchange, presented by Polymarket. The venue fixed the date before the site existed.

Over the next four months it became a voting platform. Magic-link sign-in, one vote per email, 12 categories, four serverless functions, an admin panel. It had to be a different product at four different points in time.

The date never moved. Everything else did.

04 · The practice

Four more tools, same template, escalating scope. Repetition is the argument.

    Ads Demo Tool

    The advertiser could not picture it, so I rebuilt the product as a sandbox.

06 · The offer

Stated plainly.

I find where the design work is bleeding time, and I build the thing that stops it.

Most people design or build. The hard part of automating design work is not the code. It is knowing which 80% of the output is templatable and which 20% still needs a person.

I do not write every line. I decide what gets built, why, and when it is wrong.
