My mantra: “Story—above all.”

People experience your brand with all their senses—so we should design with all of them, too. And that’s what I do.

I build UX content systems using all the emotional tools available to me: words, images, film, timing, voiceover, soundscapes—anything can be an inspiration—so the brand story stays clear and consistent everywhere.

I’m a lifelong professional writer for businesses, an expert filmmaker, a lifelong pro musician and founder of Gravity Image, LLC, a global video and UX storytelling shop.

Selected clients: Thermo Fisher Scientific, PayPal, eBay, Venmo, Braintree, Fitbit, Pirelli, Rip Curl, StubHub, Trek.
Press: Forbes, TechCrunch, Business Insider, BusinessWire, The Holmes Report, Huffington Post, Guitar Player, Mix.

Previously I founded and led PayPal Studios on the San Jose campus, taking it from a closet to a 2,000-sq-ft facility that delivered $1.2M first-year savings and 10× vs agency rates.

I’ve led language systems and content operations for a variety of high-risk moments—paywalls, billing, consent, recovery, fraud—and I still write the critical flows when it matters.

Also creating:

“Building the Moon House” — A cinematic YouTube series on building an off-grid home

HatBright — a sweat-guard insert that keeps hats clean and crisp

BK Amaro — small-batch amaro in the Italian style

I also mentor up-and-coming creatives and love sharing what I’ve learned. When I’m not working, I’m usually making music, in the mountains, or under the hood of a classic car.

This is first class [experiential content] that puts you in a different league. You can truly direct, create and manage content from written word, to image, to video and UX, and you understand things like timing, voiceover and soundscapes—and you're also someone who can leverage AI. It's hard to imagine you wouldn't be on short lists for content director positions.

I have no comments other than YESSSSSSSS! I shared your first cut with a screenwriter friend of mine and he replied: ‘That video is single-handedly the most stunning thing I’ve ever seen in the online entrepreneurial space.”‘

Incredible. I’ve had multiple of my guys’ wives texting them saying they are dying for Part 2 of this story.
