Hi, I’m Sean.

I make commercials by day and art by night. Always have. I'm a CD who never stopped wanting to get my hands dirty and actually make things.

I grew up in Chicago drawing, painting, and figuring out how to turn ideas into stuff you could actually look at. I taught myself Photoshop and HTML senior year of college, earned a BFA from Northern Illinois University, and somehow turned that into a career. Graphic design led to interactive, interactive led to art direction at Tribal DDB, and years on McDonald's taught me how to work fast, stay sharp, and never get precious.

I moved to Leo Burnett as an ACD and eventually became a CD, building full campaigns across TV, digital, social, and experiential. Along the way I picked up a few Lions and some other hardware, but mostly I just love making things that feel like a real person made them.
