Brand Builder
Account Supervisor at MullenLowe

Building brands through great creative work is my passion, and I've been fortunate enough to pursue that passion at MullenLowe LA since 2017. Initially, I joined the team as a  Digital Asset Manager, but in 2021, I shifted my focus to Account Management. In this role, I excel at bringing projects to life from start to finish, collaborating closely with our incredibly talented creative team to ensure that our team's vision is realized. While I don't personally create the content, I take immense satisfaction in my day-to-day client-facing responsibilities and account management by facilitating each project to ensure its success. Although I wear multiple hats on the Acura Account Management team, the responsibility that excites me most at the moment is managing the Acura social media accounts.

Personal Growth Advocate
Learn and Grow

I strongly believe that experience is the greatest teacher, and that's why I've made a point to soak up knowledge from a variety of sources. By pairing my personal experiences with insightful audiobooks, I've learned valuable lessons that have guided me throughout my career journey. I'm committed to documenting these learnings in the hopes that they can be useful to others on their own paths to success. It brings me great joy to share my knowledge and experiences with others, and I'm optimistic that my journey can inspire and support those who may be facing similar challenges.

Family Man
Family First

I have a deep appreciation and love for my family, and I prioritize spending quality time with them. As much as I am passionate about my work, I recognize the importance of maintaining a healthy work-life balance. I remind myself that my family's health and happiness come first, and I make sure to consistently show them how much they mean to me. Whether it's having dinner together or going on a family vacation, I cherish every moment we have together.  My family is my top priority and I will continue to put them first.

Connect and Create

When I'm not at work, I love diving into my creative side with various podcast projects and other passion projects that bring me immense joy. Of course, spending quality time with my loved ones is also a top priority for me. My family always comes first, and I'm constantly striving to strengthen my bond with them, particularly through our shared love of food. Whether it's exploring new recipes together or trying out new restaurants, I cherish these experiences and relish the opportunity to deepen our connection even further.

DJing

Music Aficionado
DJ + Music Producer

Since I was 10, music has held a special place in my heart. My love for it began when I started playing the drums, and it grew even more when I discovered the captivating sound of a vinyl record scratch at 14. As Stubbs the Chief Rocka, I spent years DJing and building a night life brand called Snapback Live with my crew. However, when the pandemic hit in 2020, I took a break. Despite this, music will always be a part of me, and I still enjoy playing a guest set or practicing. I've also produced music for film and TV, which is listed on my IMBb page. My passion for music translates into my work in other areas of my life.
