Creative Director and Copywriter

I live for good design and well-written phrases. That rhythm that happens with the right word choice. When a video cut happens as the beat drops. Helping creatives realize their potential — and empowering those that are on the right track.

There can be a lot of joy in this industry that we play in. Let’s go make some more.

A (not so) few words of recommendation

  • "I’ve worked with Martin on a range of accounts and he's handled his business with a cool, even-handed confidence every time. Deadlines? He manages them. Creative direction and inspiration? He provides them. Big picture strategy and teeny tiny details? Check and check. Feedback? He gives just the right type – pushing you in a positive direction without rewriting or redesigning the thing himself, so the creative team still feels ownership and pride. The guy also knows how to create a presentation and give it. Bottom line? You’ll be lucky to work with him. I know I was."

    — Jeff Pritchard, Senior Art Director

  • I've worked with Martin as both a designer/writer team and then under him when he became a Creative Director. I can't say enough great things about Martin. As a writer, he always brought some of the best ideas to the table and always shared his voice in anything he wrote. And as a CD, I’m very much inspired by the way Martin presents himself. He is extremely organized, he always encourages his teams to explore every avenue possible and listening in on presentations, clients love him! He is also one of the kindest, caring and compassionate people that I know. I will always cherish the times I worked with Martin. I can't recommend him enough. Whoever has the pleasure of working with him next, well, they're getting a superstar.
