My Experience
-
Symphony Talent - Creative Director
2019 - Present
At Symphony I’ve grown the Atlanta office by winning marque clients like WeWork, Pinterest, Facebook, Gilead Pharmaceutical, Edward Jones Investments and more. It has been my mission to elevate the quality of creative work and continue to push for a better and better product. Perhaps my greatest pride though, is leading a team of talented creatives to grow and even thrive during unprecedented years. In a period where surviving is commendable, we’ve learned not just to work creatively but to create our best work.
