Hi, I’m Jake — a Creative Director, Copywriter, and general ponderer based in Portland, Oregon.
My approach is grounded in curiosity: about people, about what moves them, and about how brands are a part of that evolution. I believe great creative doesn’t just make an impression — it makes a connection. That starts with clarity, trust, and teams who feel empowered and engaged.
I’m as comfortable writing headlines as I am guiding cross-functional teams — helping ideas gain traction, take shape, and resonate.
Whether I’m partnering with in-house teams or agency collaborators, I focus on creating work that’s both strategically sound and creatively enjoyable. Work that works for the people who make it — and the people who pay for it.
