I like ideas, problem-solving, and making hits.
 I love my family, guitars, and street photography.  
I wear a thick skin, and Nike sneakers every single day.  
I work best with a rollerball pen and a big-ass sketchbook.  
I can play solo, with a partner, or with a larger team without any hangups.
I ask dumb questions at the expense of making myself look dumb.
I have imposter syndrome, and use it to my advantage.
I care deeply about the work, and the people I work with.
 I came to advertising after a long decade of playing in rock bands.
 I think advertising is a lot like playing in rock bands. 
 I believe we can make hits together.
