Working with awesome brands
Marketing And Communications Director
March First Brands is a family of brewing and distilling brands based in Cincinnati, Ohio. These brands include March First Brewing, FigLeaf Brewing, Woodburn Brewing, Astra Hard Seltzer, Cincinnati Distilling and various sub distilling brands. I have served as their chief marketing employee since 2018. I provided photography, videography, copywriting, graphic design, communications and advertising services during my time with the company.
Social Media and Marketing
I had the pleasure of working with Jungle Jim’s International Market for 3 years within their creative department mainly focusing on social media and marketing. During my time there I developed many new programs within the store to attract new customers as well as give regulars new content to enjoy while shopping for goods from hundreds of countries around the world. My main focus was on photography, videography and copywriting for their social media channels and blog.
Photographer
I was lucky to snag a job with Major League gaming in 2008 as a photographer for their live events around the world. I traveled to world class tournaments featuring games like Halo, League of Legends, World of Warcraft, Starcraft 2, Call of Duty and more. During my time with MLG my photos were published worldwide with publications like Forbes Magazine, Game Informer, Scientific American Magazine and more. I also got to work with brands like Red Bull, Astro Gaming, Activision/Blizzard Entertainment, Bungie, 343 Industries, Riot Games and Twitch TV to provide them imagery for their marketing purposes at MLG events.
Photographer
I served as a journalist and photographer for Everything Drift for 6 years traveling around the United States to cover professional to grass roots drift events. During my time with them I covered Formula Drift events, the top drift league in the world as well as feeder series like Midwest Drift Union and US Drift. During my time with Everything Drift I was also able to work with some other amazing brands in the motorsports industry such as Falken Tire, Kenda Tires, Zenna Tires and many professional drivers to provide photo and video support for their teams.
Freelance
Ever since I picked up a camera I have been involved in my own freelance work, mostly in the motorsports world. I travel to events with my friends and end up getting to work with cool people and brands that I meet along the way. I have also provided my services to gaming tournaments in the United States as well as brewery and spirits brands.
