ABOUT ARNOLD
About ten years ago, I moved my whole career toward agencies that work across cultures.
What I found was an industry that still runs on shorthand about the people it sells to. Big networks and small shops alike, struggling to hire the talent that could fix it.
So I get in the room. I push the creative, strategy, and writing past the old tropes, and the work that comes out gets bought by clients and recognized by the industry. Right now, that means leading the Black audience creative on IKEA at Alma and Cricket Wireless at Dieste, a brand that has backed HBCUs since 2018 and holds the HBCU football title sponsorship through 2027.
Dallas. Open to New York, California, Chicago, and Texas opportunities. Remote, hybrid, or freelance.
