Content leadership  

Hi, I'm Steve. I build content products, develop content marketing strategies, and grow communities and brands. I've worked with all manner of global brands, from Amazon to MetLife to Adobe, both independently and through agencies. You can find more of my work on linkedin and substack.

Hire Steve to:

Develop and manage content products

I've designed and developed content strategies and publications for a range of organizations, from established companies like MetLife and Box to boutique agencies like Article Group.

Recruit creatives and executives

I've built teams from scratch, hired executives for global organizations, and staffed (and managed) projects for clients. I can start from zero, or develop an existing department or team.

Run workshops and create custom events

I lead workshops on developing creative content ideas, and I help companies develop and produce creative events.
