Hey there, future creators! I’ve spent over 17 years (yes, I'm old) turning ideas into awesome brand stories, and I’m here to share what I’ve learned along the way. I’m all about taking a brand’s personality and making it shine through storytelling that sticks, whether it’s on social media, in a commercial, or on the web.
I specialize in making brands stand out and connect with their audience in meaningful ways—without all the jargon. It’s about crafting stories that make sense, are fun to follow, and get people to care. I’ve helped brands grow by understanding what people really want, and I’m passionate about guiding teams to create things that inspire, engage, and actually work.
If you’re ready to dive in, I’ll show you how to turn creative ideas into results, whether you’re building your own brand or helping someone else’s. Let’s collaborate, have fun, and build something great together. Ready to roll up your sleeves? Let’s get started!
Ulysses’ Career Stories
What is the biggest challenge you had to overcome to get to where you are now professionally? How did you overcome it?
It was the FRIDAY RECORD HOP—yeah, that's what my high school called our quarterly dance. I was looking fly from head to toe, rocking my version of MC Hammer pants (Google it if you don't know), ready to bust out the latest dance move. I strutted straight up to the prettiest girl in the room—Stacey. With more confidence than any 15-year-old should ever have, I went for it. Her response? Two words. And those words? "Boy, please!" Followed by a swift exit that could have been in a movie. I swear, it was like she just dropped a mic and walked off. My friends weren’t shocked—they were just waiting for it. What did blow their minds, though, was how I kept going like "Boy, please" wasn't the new title I’d just earned. Here’s the thing: In my mind, I was out there pursuing greatness (okay, fine, it was 15-year-old greatness, but it counts). When you’re going for greatness, you don’t think about limits. Nope, you just pretend they don’t exist and keep doing your thing—because, in that moment, I was convinced the universe was about to recognize me as the next big thing. Spoiler alert: It didn’t. Professionally, if I don't feel or hear - "Boy, please!" I am not pursuing greatness. There's not a shortage of opportunities. There's a shortage of thinking.
