Special Skills & Expertise

Right Brain 🤝 Left Brain

I connect bold, culturally-relevant ideas to business impact, and I lead the teams that execute them. From vision to systems to feedback loops, I build environments where great ideas thrive and execution stays sharp.
I build always-on content engines and campaigns aligned to business goals, platform behavior, and audience intent. Platform-native across YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook, with the workflows and KPIs that let creativity scale without chaos.
I shape brands and creator-led identities with clarity, character, and consistency, defining voice, story, and positioning that resonate and scale.

Great ideas can be engineered without feeling like it. I use audience insight and cultural context to spark ownable, high-impact concepts, and build repeatable frameworks to find them again and again.
I build stories that unfold across touchpoints, digital, physical, and in between, using world building to add depth and story to anchor purpose. The invisible details that make an idea unforgettable.
I design immersive, in-person experiences, from pop-ups to surprise theatrical events, built not just for metrics but for memory.

ABOUT
ME

Former professional magician turned content leader. Good Morning America once called me the 'positive prankster.'

Hi, I'm Blake, a creative and content leader with 15+ years turning bold ideas into content that reaches billions.

I got my start as a professional magician at age 10 and was producing video professionally by high school. Before college I built a personal brand from the ground up, 800K+ YouTube subscribers and national media (Good Morning America called me the "positive prankster"), by blending storytelling, surprise, and heart.

Since then I've led creative and content at scale: heading ideation for MrBeast, growing brands and creators to millions of followers, and building the platform-native strategies, teams, and systems that turn creative ambition into audience growth, engagement, and business impact.

I lead multidisciplinary teams, design the operating systems that make great content repeatable, and balance breakthrough creative with data and business goals.
