I’m Skye, an award-winning Creative Director based in Toronto. I like making ambitious work that earns its place in culture, built on sharp ideas, conscientious craft and good people working well together.
I take the work seriously. Myself, considerably less so. When I’m not making things for brands, I’m usually making obscure oddities no one asked for. Lately, that’s paranormal short films and tiny, mildly unsettling figurines.
