Bio

Hi! I'm Adam, I'm a senior advertising student at Brigham Young University focusing on production! My goal is to become an Agency Producer and work on commercials for the biggest brands in the world. I already have one under my belt—an official branded spot for Coca-Cola that was shown in thousands of movies nationwide last year. My creative partner and I were awarded the 2024 Coca-Cola Refreshing Films Grand Prize and Cinemark Fan Favorite Awards for our work on "Signs of Friendship," a 30 second commercial created in collaboration with the brand. As part of the BYU AdLab, I've worked on real client briefs from TBWA\London (CPG), ServiceNow (Tech), Agency New Business (Retail), and a local restaurant expanding into 8 states (QSR).

I've been drawn to storytelling ever since I first picked up a camera when I was a young teenager. The first videos and stories I can remember making were of my friends in my backyard pretending to be Link from the Legend of Zelda and a LEGO stop motion movie featuring the Chewbacca and the Millennium Falcon. Someone once told me “the universe is made up of stories," and I am on a mission to share them. I believe that we understand the world through stories. They inform not just our beliefs, but our actions for the better.

Throughout my career, I hope to make media with underlying messages that persuade people around the world to do good, to love their families, and to find small ways to serve the people that surround us every day. I’m a producer by trade but a storyteller at heart. And if one of the stories that I tell changes you in some small way, in either thought or deed, then I’ve done my job.
