• Can’t miss TV: Breaking Bad

• Favorite Super Bowl ad: Talking animals (doesn’t matter the brand— they crack me up)

• Why Media: Involvement in media is my bid to rule the world by making consumers do what I want them to on behalf of the brands I support

• Why KSM? Because of the opportunity to work on a diverse list of clients that keep things fresh. Oh yeah...the people...gotta love the people I’ve been lucky enough to surround myself with!
