Some people say “Joo-hoss” and I can’t blame them.

It’s pronounced, “You-hoss” but don’t sweat it.

I’m a writer, creative leader, and human who helps other groups of humans figure out what they stand for, what they should say, and how to make it all worth listening to.

Over 16 years, I’ve led teams, repositioned global brands, crafted voices, and clarified points of view for complicated companies with even more complex roles in our lives.

Outside of work, you can find me in a recording studio, turning alternating current into sound with a soldering iron, or pretending to be a dinosaur who’s also a doctor.
