About Me

Bio

Hello, I’m Tommy—a passionate Art Director and Designer based in Atlanta, GA, with a strong focus on advertising, brand strategy, and design. I recently graduated from Miami Ad School’s Art Direction program, where I had the incredible opportunity to intern at BBDO ATL, Droga5, and JOAN Creative.

My creative approach is shaped by my experience as a dyslexic thinker, combined with a background in Business and Entrepreneurship from undergrad. This unique perspective allows me to tackle project briefs and challenges from unconventional angles, sparking fresh, impactful ideas.

Outside of creating, you’ll often find me on the soccer field or exploring new places, camera in hand. My love for photography, travel, and music comes together on my Photography Playlist page.

I’m currently seeking a full-time role where I can channel my energy and dedication into creating work that disrupts the ordinary and wows clients. I look forward to working with you!
