Brand Story
Every brand needs to tell a story. We craft brand stories with clients through a carefully considered and fun process that distills the essence of your product or service so that it connects with customers.
Creative Direction
A clear brand story inspires exciting marketing ideas, ad campaigns and brand activations. We work with a slate of talented collaborators to make brands shine across all channels.
Copy, Content & More
Every word matters -- from your business' name, mission statement and tagline to its website copy and merch line. We find the right words for everything. When it comes to content, it's about developing the right thumb-stopping ideas, and then determining when and how to execute them for maximum impact.

Testimonials
“Jimmy has a beautiful way of knowing exactly what your vision is and making it a reality. He instinctively knows what your company needs and how it represents you. I always felt like he understood what I wanted, even when I was not so sure. I could not recommend his creative intuition and guidance enough.“
Michelle Anderson, FELL Coaching
"If I could have Jimmy write this testimonial for me, I would. Before knowing him, I would have had the confidence to write it myself. But after working with Jimmy on several projects, I’ve been humbled by his smart, savvy word-smithing and the way he strings words and ideas together. No one does it better."
Sam Griffin, Founder and Creative Producer at Griffin & Co.
“Jimmy is an absolute genius. His ability to pull out the essence of a brand is truly unmatched in the industry. I have worked with Jimmy on multiple projects, from start-ups to billion dollar clients, and he is one of the most forward-thinking yet practical and understanding creatives I have ever come across. A true gem.”
