ABOUT ME
Hey there! Thanks for dropping by. I'm currently heading up the creative vision at PlaiPix, where we transform pet photos into magical AI portraits.
Before diving into the world of AI-generated pet art, I've worn many creative hats at places like Realidyne, Monster VR, Neudesic, and Quest Software. I'm that person who gets equally excited about traditional marketing campaigns and the mind-blowing possibilities of AR, VR, and generative AI. My secret sauce? Do the homework, cook up a killer creative strategy, and mix just the right tech ingredients to send your story soaring. Because at the end of the day, it's all about making people feel something and inspiring them to take action.
I studied English Literature with a side of Economics at Loyola Marymount University. I've got a Google Digital Marketing certification, but what really keeps me going is playing with the latest AI tools. When I'm not geeking out over new tech, I'm hanging in Laguna Hills with my crew – my wife, two sons, two daughters, one cat, and three angel fish.
What I've been feeding my brain lately: Everything Is F*cked: A Book About Hope, by Mark Manson, The Three-Body Problem, by Liu Cixin, The Bonesetter's Daughter, by Amy Tan, Calypso, by David Sedaris, The Stone Sky, by N. K. Jemisin, The Lost Symbol, by Dan Brown, Unoffendable, by Brant Hansen, Dune, by Frank Herbert, Outliers, by Malcolm Gladwell, Recursion, by Blake Crouch
