Hello,
I’m Ryan.
I’m a dad, an award-winning creative director, a writer, and traveler.
Currently, I’m a Vice President, Group Creative Director at Innocean, which is a lot of words to say I help lead the creative team on Hyundai.
Before that, you might have passed me in the halls at TBWA/Chiat/Day, DDB, Deutsch, Wongdoody, RTOP, or freelancing at more places than I can remember.
Way before that, I was a kid from Pennsylvania (Bethlehem, by way of Scranton, followed by Philly and all while being a Steelers fan,) who dreamt of a career writing things that made people laugh the way Dave Barry, or Steven Wright, or MST3K made me laugh.
So I headed straight for advertising. After journalism, DJing, record promotions and film publicity.
Along the way, I picked up a bunch of other skills like mentoring creatives, earning a client’s trust, making dry presentations entertaining, obsessing over tiny details, and pushing the work until it is undeniable.
My work has been featured on the Super Bowl, won Effies, Cannes Lions, Clios, One Show Pencils and numerous other reputable blocks of lucite while still occasionally being trolled in the comments section.
When I’m not working on the work stuff, I’m working on making my kids laugh, taking an impossibly long road trip, rummaging the record bins or hiking the forests found seemingly everywhere but Los Angeles.
