It all started with a spark—somewhere between Disney Imagineering, Broadway, Hawaiian rainforests, and a push from Thomas Keller. Over the past 20 years, I’ve had endlessly fun jobs with the best people at wildly creative companies.

I’ve navigated the highs and lows of national product launches, strategic pivots, and the exhilarating chaos of rapid growth phases. I’ve nurtured supportive, vibrant cultures both in-house and at agencies for 140+ brilliant artists and marketers. I’ve pulled all-nighters, obsessed over customer voice, mediated tough conversations, and overloaded Slack with my GIF enthusiasm.

Here’s what I’ve learned: Creativity is resilience. It’s the heartbeat of every great story – through the twists and turns, we uncover new possibilities and unexpected joys. Because at the end of the day, you’re always telling a story.

It’s my job to bring your story to life.

Meet Opie

  • Opie’s creative journey began in the high-energy world of fashion and wedding photography, where he blended creativity with business acumen under demanding client pressures. After receiving his marketing degree, Opie advanced to steering the marketing and equity sale of a brokerage, co-founding an agency that promoted $2.2B in Hawaiian resorts and developments, and launching his own creative firm, collaborating with brands like Walt Disney Imagineering and Verizon.

    His 15+ year career is marked by artistic excellence, emotional intelligence, insight-led marketing strategy, servant leadership, and a positive, youthful spirit.

  • When Opie isn’t transforming brands, he’s embracing his inner movie buff, exploring the whimsical worlds of Harry Potter, and indulging in his love for theme parks and live entertainment. An avid director, actor, and vocalist, he has always had a flair for performance and creative expression, which shows up in his standout pitch decks and presentations.

    Back home in OC, he's also a dedicated dog dad to his two doodles, Callie and Cody. His passion for food leads him to the best culinary spots and experiences, and his heart finds fulfillment in volunteering at his church and counseling both adults and youth for the last 14 years. His diverse interests keep his creativity flowing and his connections deep.
