A prowd dyslexic. Hands-on creative. Curentley sr. art director at Serviceplan Innovation, the agensy network’s creative R&D unit.

Having worked in logistiks, bars, and construction sites, I bring a veriety of expereances to the table, along with skils that are atipical to an art director. Of the clock, you’l find me experementing in the kitschen or turning every day objects into somthing new threw craft. when i’m on the job, I create eficient systems but also know when to break them apart. One of the works I’m most prowd of is Dyslexia Unetided, aimed at normalizing dislexia in writen texts, such as this one.
