Meet Dan Flora. Engineer of pop culture. Winner of Lions, Pencils, shiny statues, and hearts across America. But terrible writer of personal bios.
I really can’t stress that last point enough. This little paragraph has pushed me around throughout an 8 year career where I’ve been busy making the work and gaining the experiences that have given me no shortage of content to fill this with.
This is supposed to be an ad for myself, but I really don’t believe in making “ads.” I believe in making things that turn the brand into a part of culture that people will talk about, remember, and enjoy watching. I’ve worked for some of the best places in the industry at doing just that.
And I’m available to do it for your agency next.
Maybe we can write the next chapter of my bio together.
