What are your favorite non-advertising related creative outlets?

“Snowboarding, without a doubt. Just got back on the board, been without it for two years due to three surgeries after tearing an ACL playing soccer for school.”

How would you explain your future job to family or friends who don’t know anything about the advertising industry?

“What was the last thing you didn’t need but bought anyways? You’re welcome!”

Of all the Twitter accounts you follow, which ones are your favorites and why?

“@darthvader of course, with tweets like ‘If he could be turned, he would be a powerful ally.#justinbieber’. I find myself intrigued by this Bieber dude because he is trending 24/7, but have no clue who he is besides this video. Classic.”

If you could ask your favorite creative director one question and be guaranteed an honest, straightforward answer, what would your question be?

“Juan Cabral: You just wanted to do something with bouncy balls and Sony came along later, right?”

Where do you see yourself five years from now?

“In my flying car, and if I don’t have it by then I’ll seriously go mental. The future isn’t really as cool as I would imagine when I was four.”

How do you know when you’ve seen the best idea ever?

“Without any substances involved, you wake up from the dream, naked, under your bed, half digested pillow and your underwear is hanging on the mezzanine 20 feet above the ground on the other side of the street, and you remember nothing.”
