Hi. I’m Joel.

I almost went to law school. But I thought working with creative briefs would be would be a lot more challenging and fun than working with
legal briefs. I think I was right on both counts.

I love working as a writer because I never know from day to day what I’ll be working on. It’s never boring. I get to work with smart, wildly talented people. I help companies, big and small, build their brand, spread their message and do the work.

No matter what I’m doing, I approach each project like it’s the most important thing I’m writing, because to the client, it is.

WHAT I DO
Think. Observe. Strategize. Write. Collaborate. Conceptualize.
