Creative Director // Brand BuilderPortland-based creative director, brand builder, art director, and the guy sleuthing your brand’s origin story long before we even meet.
hi, I'm Nick.
Working with agency teams, nonprofits, established brands, and hungry startups - in retail, CPG, cannabis, alcohol, and expansive digital spaces where getting attention is hard and keeping it is harder.
Currently working on Witchcraftery - a new approach to brand service for the small-business community, and taking on select creative projects when the fit is right.

No matter what we build next,
it's entirely you.
your brand already has a center of gravity, but most teams struggle to name it. But, Once it's defined, everyone stops improvising and starts reinforcing. That's when the work compounds instead of contradicts.Together, we can find that center, lock it in, and build from the inside out.Nick’s Approach to building an

I’ve spent my career creating, refining and amplifying brands in ways that are emotive and resonant through digital and physical spaces.

Spanning nearly twenty years, I’ve had the honor of developing strategic, brand-focused video and motion graphics in the retail and digital space. First-party and third-party data has proven that bespoke, high-fidelity brand content can disrupt and earn attention in ways that other media simply cannot. For the price, ongoing retail video and informational content can be created quickly, iterated infinitely, and audited with the help of modern tech to verify efficacy.
Is your brand looking to add revenue-driving video to your marketing stack? Let’s talk.

Working within the rapidly changing and highly nuanced medical and adult-use market restrictions, I’ve delivered impactful branding, product marketing, and activations that capture attention, build affinity, and drive ongoing loyalty.
(for clarity, I sell creative strategy, design, and development - I do not sell any infused products.)

Since early 2023, I’ve spent my time researching, testing, and implementing time and money-saving processes to take advantage of the power generative artificial intelligence. Though nothing can replace the value of great creatives, AI can help bring concepts to life when time is limited and big ideas need a little extra support.
Need insights to help your team work with AI, and not against it? Hit me up.
