The Lost Years/Covid Blip

Like many creative industries in 2020, the advertising freelance scene shut down. With a mortgage to pay and two daughters in college, I needed a steady agency job quickly. Fortunately, my recent freelance work with Swift in Portland led to a recommendation to become the Executive Creative Director at their sister agency in Seattle, Wunderman Thompson. After leading the WT team through the challenges of the Covid years, I set out once again. I joined my long-time creative partner, Ryan Crisman, at his creative studio in Amsterdam. Here, we create brand films for the space industry and fashion brands. I know that’s a bizarre mix of clients, but after Covid, what didn’t get weird?
