Hello. I’m Craig.

That picture over there is a remarkably accurate self-portrait. Except for my left eye. It’s not that weird in real life.

I’ve been a Creative Director for a while. A writer for even longer. Probably since I was seven. My spelling has improved since then. I’ve worked on brands of all sizes. Big, global brands. Small brands. Brands that were brand new. Like, they didn’t even exist before so we had to launch them into the universe so people could hear about them. I’ve written across every medium. Worked across lots of disciplines. Something something verticals. Words that mean important things, etc etc.
