    I'm a born a bred fourth generation Californian based in Oakland, CA and working as a Creative Director at Astro Studios in SF. I've had the pleasure to work with a wide variety of clients that span food service, luxury camping, enterprise computing, wellness, beauty care, material innovation, audio and consumer electronics. I've been lucky to work with both Fortune 100 companies and start-ups alike including Bose, Coca-Cola, Corning, Dolby, Google, Intel, Mighty Leaf Tea, P&G and Snow Peak. I keep myself honest as an adjunct professor at my Alma Mater, California College of the Arts.
