Don’t worry, he has a Green Card so it’s all legit. He spent over a decade at BBDO New York and has worked in London and Sweden. Along the way, he’s worked on a diverse list of clients and projects that have spanned everything from award winning TV spots to chart topping apps and viral social campaigns. In 2020 his ‘Back to School Essentials’ spot for Sandy Hook Promise won the Emmy for Outstanding commercial. To prove it wasn’t a fluke, he won a second Emmy in 2022. They sit on a shelf behind his son’s lego.
