Why hire the Media Guy?

I am a Media Bad Ass. (Impressive marketing and leadership skills included…)

I am a writer, a photographer, a travel guide, a diplomat, and a super nice guy. When it comes to strategy, research, analytics, concept, and execution that positively impact the bottomline, I don’t take prisoners. I eat them for lunch.

Seem too good to be true? I can back it up.

I’m a stickler for clean and consistent branding, but absolutely demand breaking the rules. I shamelessly prepare my teams to emulate my passion for the brand.

And my photography? It speaks for itself.

Am I savant? Perhaps, but more like a strategic thinker and a doer. If you are receptive to real talk and willing to let me cook, we can make some magic. I’m talking David Copperfield-type big magic here. As an added bonus, I am the glue of any project. I make every willing member of the team better, stronger, faster.

I’m looking for the niftiest collaborators and bravest clients to work with. If that’s you, call me!

BRANDING

Your brand story must be designed, developed, and built from the ground up. Stack the building blocks in your favor from the get-go.

PHOTOGRAPHY

Art. Emotion. Vibrancy. They say a picture is worth a thousand words. I say a picture should leave you speechless.

SCREENWRITING

Turn your concept into a cinematic creation through masterful storytelling that demands a standing ovation.

EXPERIENTIAL MARKETING

Establish a true brand connection with consumers through engaging experiences that are centered on authenticity.

CAMPAIGNS

Pick your poison: Advertising, Marketing, or Communications. Then, we break the mold and reshape it into the new gold standard.

CONTENT CREATION

Social media. Reels. Videos. Audio. Podcasts. I’ll meet your audience right where they are, while providing a glimpse of what’s next.

WRITER’S ROOM

Beguiling words meticulously crafted by an elite Emmy-award winning writer of TV, web, and radio commercial scripts.

EDITORIALS

Over 10,000 articles (and counting) written for top worldwide media outlets and journals. I’ll strip away the fluff to reveal your reality.

Storytelling With Soul

ARTICLE WRITING

Deep audience understanding.

Original copy with first-rate quality.

One creative mind, zero AI.

Over 10,000 articles and white papers ghostwritten. By yours truly, keyboard clacking and words flowing late into the night, flexing my creativity to complete the mission at hand.

Of course, AI is all the rage these days. But you know what AI can’t do? Feel emotion. Breathe life into your words. Bring soul to your writing. It won’t take you on a compelling journey, weaving in inspiration, imagination, and information, all in one carefully crafted piece of prose. That is my job. It’s my passion.

I recognize the understated, yet essential, differences between writing articles for digital channels and creating them for magazines and newspapers. I don’t do fluff. I bristle at the term “filler”. I write with purpose and style—your style. Being a word chameleon isn’t everyone’s ideal gig, but it’s my sweet spot. My colors change seamlessly to adapt to your tone, your brand, and your purpose. I’ll hit the exact word count you order, and I guarantee that you will never miss a deadline. Your deadlines are my deadlines, and that is something I don’t take lightly.

And, rest assured, when your editors want to dig in and make changes or amendments, my streamlined revision process means your edits are turned around quickly. Often in as little as 24 hours. 

Whether they are strict or simple, your publication’s citing and sourcing requirements are followed meticulously. My articles have been published in international and domestic magazines, newspapers, and industry trade publications since 1988…over 10,000 times.

Capture the moment

TRAVEL PHOTOGRAPHY

Embedded photographer for your next vacation, destination event, or FAM outing.

200+ destinations and counting.

Modern photojournalism redefined.

Images go beyond the polished façade of what we think to be true, exposing the vulnerabilities, revealing the cracks in the surface, and blowing away the smoke and mirrors. And this is where true emotion lies. Beneath our concept of reality is an undercurrent of imagination and inspiration, instantly revealing truths of the human experience that are brought to light through the power of a lens (and the photographer behind the lens, of course).

And let me tell you, I live for these moments. The feeling of knowing I got THE shot. The impossibly perfect angle, the flawless golden lighting, the emotional vibrancy that leaps from the image.

From Paris to Barcelona, from Los Angeles to New York City, I’ll pack up my professional gear and tackle any assignment with childlike exhilaration. When you’re on that once-in-a-lifetime bucket list trip, selfies just won’t cut it. I’ll plan your shot list, and recommend the best backdrops to give you stunning visual memories to reside alongside the memories that will live in your heart forever.

I’ve had amazing opportunities to photograph the culture, beauty, and diversity that exist in hundreds of cities around the world. I’ve traveled to high-risk areas and war-torn countries. Where a lone tear rolling down a sallow cheek can represent love, fear, hope, and faith, all in a split second. Many photojournalists won’t visit these dangerous areas. I will.

In fact, this is where I first learned to live with gratitude, and deliver award-winning images that represent humanity rekindled, and compassion rediscovered.

Rediscover Your Belief in Magic

COMMERCIAL
CAMPAIGNS

Visual identity.

Brand awareness.

Advertising and marketing campaigns built on a killer concept.

Want to raise the bar? You’ve come to the right place.

“It kinda works like magic.”

-Steve Jobs

Positioning. Brand image. Big ideas.

My mentor in my early New York City ad agency days told me that these are the three pillars of producing advertising that sells. The average person is bombarded with advertisements all day, every day. More than they can handle. Pop-ups, banners, billboards, ads that appear mid-video. In the midst of all the noise, how do you get someone to purchase your product or service?

It used to be that the loudest would win the day. These days, the Internet has changed everything. Why? Because everyone can hypothetically be the loudest. Just remember, loud does not always equal smart. Your campaign can be loud and in their face, but that doesn’t ensure your products will be flying off the shelves. Customers are smarter than ever. 

Crafting a sage advertising or marketing campaign can be mystifying, time-consuming, and expensive—which is exactly why you need a fresh set of eyes. My campaigns have been seen all over the world and have resulted in media buys exceeding $200 million. I will help reinvent your ad campaign strategy to gain the ROI you seek, without the excessive clutter.

It is a delicate dance that requires bravery, bravado, courage, and a little bit of envelope-pushing. It involves putting the pieces of the puzzle together just right, until they interlock into that perfect, magical fit.

Will it make a world of difference? Absolutely.

GHOSTWRITING BOOKS AND SCREENPLAYS

Exceptional ghostwriting services.

Nearly twenty books in print and films on screen.

Quick, quality turnaround.

Expectations exceeded and satisfaction guaranteed.

The next great American novel. The latest thriller or summer blockbuster. They all began with pen to paper, scribbled notes, ideas flowing, creative brainstorming. The ubiquitous process of crafting a story from nothing, yet everything, all at once.

Now, imagine that story being brought to life through the eyes of a seasoned writer.

I take ghostwriting seriously, and I view my words as an extension of your creative concept. I am versatile enough to write any book, of any length, in any genre. If it’s your dream to turn your unique storyline into a movie script, I can craft a superb script that has the highest probability of being sold and made into a feature film.

A screenplay is a very specific niche of writing, a working movie blueprint, if you will. I serve as the architect of that blueprint, providing direction, hammering out the details, and delivering an end result that stands the test of time. If you want to impress producers, agents, or financial capitalists, you need to write in their language. That’s where I come in. It’s in my blood.

The market for original, scripted content is as vibrant as ever. But you want to know a secret? Success often depends on who you get to craft your screenplay. I will give your script that je ne sais quos that can turn a movie into the must-see talk of the town.
