Hey, I’m Avery. I’m a creative director, living in Portland and working all over. I was most recently at Trailer Park, leading cross-agency teams on Netflix and new business. Before that, I spent a couple of years running the Xbox and Game Pass accounts at Mutiny.

Ask me about my process and I'll give you a different answer depending on the day and how much coffee I’ve had. But no matter what the brief says (or whether or not there is one), my goal is always the same: make the work worthwhile. For the team who creates it, the clients who invest in it, and the people who see it out in the world.

It isn’t always easy, but I didn’t get it into this industry because I thought it would be easy. I did it because I thought it would be fun. So far, it has been.
