Hi, I'm Al, a kid from the suburbs who found his way to the heart of Silicon Valley. I work at the intersection of creativity and technology. I believe that creativity = applied curiosity, open to all. And that technology, used well, can be a force for good.

I apply curiosity to business, technology, and culture. My work spans creative leadership and innovation - opening new markets at Facebook, launching ads on Instagram, leading global creative direction at Pinterest, and driving AI product initiatives at Meta.
Currently, I focus on using emerging technology to shape documentary storytelling in entertainment, healthcare, and education; developing new IP; and leading creative and technical R&D projects for Apple, Meta, and Google.
Grateful to have applied a little curiosity with: Apple, Google, Meta, Pinterest, WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram, Samsung, adidas, Nike, L'Oreal, Estée Lauder, Rimmel, Burberry, Chanel, LVMH, Barbour, Sony Music, Channel 4, Disney, Starbucks, Bose, Lufthansa, Ford, Jaguar LandRover, Mazda, BMW, Citroen, General Motors, Vodafone, Woolworths, American Express, HSBC, HBOS, Unilever, P&G, Vertical Aerospace, Dassault Systèmes, Stella Artois, Budweiser, Heineken, Malibu, Waitrose, Sargento, Target, Home Depot, eBay, Amazon and more.
