LOS ANGELES, USA // A maker at heart, Eugene has worked as a writer, art director, creative director and director throughout his 23 year advertising career. Starting at agencies in Minneapolis, his creative pursuits have taken him coast to coast. From New York, to Miami, to LA.

Eugene has created award winning work for agencies such as Mother, Crispin Porter Bogusky, Publicis, Ogilvy, Carmichael Lynch and Periscope among others. And he’s been honored by the Cannes International Advertising Awards, One Show Awards, Emmy Awards, Kelly Awards and Golden Drum Awards to name a few.

Prior to joining 72andSunny as a Group Creative Director, Eugene was the founding partner/creative director of Zoo Collective, where he led several projects. From the creation of a nationwide music tour for Pepsi featuring top Latin artists, to starting an online fashion magazine, to writing and directing the feature length documentary Bikes Over Baghdad chronicling a gut-wrenching BMX tour in the Middle East during the Iraq War.

Eugene has worked with several agencies and production companies over the last decade as a freelance creative director/writer.

Although he’s a whole dad with two young children, he doesn’t plan to grow up anytime soon.
