Creatives, unite.

A: There’s so much talent and depth at Streetsense — branding, interior design, architecture, interactive, digital + social, research. I’m excited to work with all of these smart and creative people to deliver truly groundbreaking projects.

A: Dean & DeLuca. I remember visiting it as a kid and thinking it was the wonderland of food. My goal was to return the Dean & DeLuca experience to that sense of wonder, and I believe we achieved that.

A: Patrick O’Connell from The Inn at Little Washington. The level of detail he puts into his work and the way he thinks — he’s brilliant.

A: I wouldn’t call it intuition, I would describe it more like hapless wandering. In general, I gravitate towards interesting, talented, and sometimes difficult people.

A: I used to approach leadership as a top-down, iron-fist sort of style and that just doesn’t work anymore. I’m a recovering 1.0 leader trying to hone my 2.0 leadership style. My new focus is to give people the opportunity to do what they do best and collaborate with talented people to let their skills shine.

A: I would love to have one of the top chefs in the world come to Washington DC with dreams of creating a groundbreaking concept, and hire Streetsense to bring their vision to life.
