About

 

Hi, I’m Ricky, a writer and creative director.

I make ads for a living, but I try my hardest to not make them feel like ads. I’d like to think my job is to give brands a voice, along with a reason for people to listen. When I’m not doing that, I’m usually writing sketch comedy or trying to find good ramen. Often both at the same time.
