We made this because… tandem bikes are fun.

I love how we landed on the simplest, un-flashiest way to show how Columbia Bank teams with local small businesses to help PNW.
I directed all the long-form content and the 2 broadcast spots.
❤️ the honest, unscripted thoughts of every business involved.
Agency did a case study on the project here
Copywriter
This work helped define Columbia Bank as the future of banking in the PNW.
From creating in-branch “ice-breaker” vid’s that work without sound - showing the bank and its bankers as part of the community.
To concepting experiential “apple pie” welcome to the neighborhood stunts that broke the bank’s expectation on year one sales goals.
Everything we made looked and felt emotionally “real”. We wanted to humanize an industry that doesn’t feel too human… way too often.
Copywriter // Director
Engage Seattleites who skip over the usual “cars cars cars” Auto Shows ads.
Our solution = fun smelly campaign for Seattle Auto Show (starring coworkers & friends).
We created 5 broadcast spots, radio, social and print.

Sometimes you need a pep talk to make a big decision.
Sometimes it comes from inside... These try to be that talk… does it work? I don’t know… does it? maybe?
Copywriter
Don’t know what to call these… but thought taking a kinda-new school vision to old school daytime TV testimonials might resonate.
Aaaand try to be really real by pulling back the curtain on the good stuff that goes on at Pima.
Director
Don’t “showcase” stuff that never aired & you didn’t write.
But here we are.
My Role: Asked to direct whimsical short videos on weird spots around Seattle Southside. Covid was spiking. Budget was dropping. So, I turned the host into a Seagull & invented a SpokesBird that’d be fun to watch.
Alas… client said “nope” to Steve >> final vids sans Seagull are linked here (directed Spice Bridge, Big Catch & Earthworks).
A simple Seattle story about a sculptor.
A nice place to run, or sit, or talk to birds near SeaTac.
Director // Writer // Editor // Phone Holder… whatevers
Stuff I made for friends with friends for fun.
& some stuff thats… well - half-baked.
Holiday Concept pitched as a “what would happen if u rebranded ad agency as a dispensary… by accident” in Seattle… This was the vid to sell the idea thru -> alas...
Agency mtg vid introducing new project management tool. Agency mtg feedback… no questions asked.
Ad playing inside Tinder for Rock One Sock non-profit. Made in a day… in a closet… inspired by Footloose.
