I’m Christopher — a Creative Director who refuses to be put in a box. Part strategist, part designer, part systems thinker. I work from concept all the way through implementation at scale, and I bring the kind of creative vision that drives results you can actually measure.

“A rare blend of creative vision and systematic thinking — genuinely hard to find.”

Who I am
I’m a brand person, a designer, a creative problem solver, and a systems thinker — all at once. I work from the earliest spark of a concept through final implementation at scale, and I bring both the creative vision and the strategic rigor to make it stick.
I’ve been called an “innovative strategist” and a “unicorn” — and while I appreciate the compliments, what it really means is I can sit with executives in a strategy session in the morning and be in the weeds of a design system by afternoon. That range is rare, and it’s what I bring to every engagement.
