Hey. Hi. Hello.
Hailing from Jersey City, NJ (aka New York's sixth borough), I help link brands together to their audiences with stories, experiences, and strategies that make them feel emotions, take action, and connect deeper. Through conceptual thinking, verbal design, and pure copywriting, I dig like a cultural archaeologist until I find the right hook, and flip that into something powerful, something human. Because I see creativity, content, and brand as a vehicle for connection. When we tell the right stories, we cultivate the right sense of community, no matter where the audience goes. So, if you're looking to make deeper inroads in communities and in culture, let's link up.
What I Do
Copywriting. Conceptual Thinking/Campaigns. Activations. Tone of Voice. Messaging Strategy. Manifestos. UX/Content Design. Social and Long-form Content. Experiential. Live Events. Speechwriting.
How I Work
With: Curiosity. Empathy. Openness. Proactive communication. Accountability. Collaboration. Humor. An 'idea can come from anywhere' mindset. Kindness with a Jersey edge. And endless music and movie recommendations.
Outside Interests
Solo Travel. Playing Guitar. Going to a ton of concerts and events. Capturing the world from my camera's perspective. Writing essays and stories. Handwriting pen pal letters. Ceramics (and other arts and crafts). Being an armchair movie critic (with the help of AMC A-List). Being an armchair restaurant critic. Being an armchair art critic. Volunteering for CreativeMornings events. Going on long, meandering walks with no destination in mind, a coffee in hand, and music in my ears. Hiking. Biking. Yoga. Learning. Etc, etc, etc.

Testimonials
"Brian, it was such a joy working with you on this. You brought a fresh POV to the table, and you were always down to just riff with me. It was amazing to know and trust that you'd deliver quality words with very little oversight from me. (Not to mention having to do most of your writing directly into Excel—a copywriter's nightmare!)" - ACD
