Hi.

I've been lucky to work some talented folks and brave clients. I'm proud we've had the opportunity to turn disruptive ideas into compelling social results for: Apple, RAM Trucks, Pepsi, The NBA, ESPN, and HP. Happy the work has also brought home the hardware: Cannes Lions, One Show Pencils, Effie, Webby, and a spot in the MoMA.

 

Lets make something interesting.

Kohl crashed on a really tough project for us and came out with wonderful ideas that made us proud and our client happy.

He is spirited and funny, especially for someone named after former German Prime Minister Helmut Kohl. He's culturally on

top of all things, presents really well, collegial and a proven clutch hitter.

Kohl is one of the great ones...

Check your negativity and cynicism at the door. Because when you bring Kohl in for a project, his drive and can-do attitude are absolutely infectious. He's a great thinker, and he thinks BIG. He believes great things are possible, and by the time you've seen what he puts on the wall, you will too.

I've worked with Kohl as a creative partner and I've also hired him as a director. He's always brimming with enthusiasm and ideas. He's equally excited about taking in and building on ideas from others. Kohl will work tirelessly, never losing his positive outlook. It's impressive, really.

Kohl is one of a kind, and I am thankful to call him my mentor. His positive attitude is like a double shot of espresso. Any day, any time, and any project, you’ll find him fully present in the moment inspiring his teams to reach the best ideas. I believe what truly sets Kohl apart is his ability to make those ideas a reality.
