Creative Director with 10+ years leading brand and campaign work across agency, in-house, and founder roles. I own the full surface: strategy, concept, art direction, copy, and the craft to build it. That range lets small teams ship big-brand work. Past clients include NASA, Google, Meta, Disney, Warner Bros, and Samsung. Doing more with less. woodsimmons@gmail.com
