Partnerships
Who I've worked with.
I've been lucky, and I've also sent a lot of cold emails. Over the last decade I've partnered with brands and military branches that most kids from Alabama never picture walking into a room with. Every deal on this page started with someone (usually me) deciding to ask. If you've been sitting on a pitch or a partnership idea, this is your sign to send it.

The military partnership work is the work I'm most proud of. Every campaign here was built to tell the real story of service, not the brochure version.

I only partner with brands I'd actually recommend to my closest friends. If that rules out 95% of inbound, that's the point, and it's why the partnerships that do happen tend to perform.

Thinking about reaching out?
Send the pitch. The worst I can say is “not right now.” The best thing I've ever said yes to started with exactly that kind of email.
