WK12 is an experimental advertising school housed inside Wieden+Kennedy's Portland office. The school accepts 13 students who spend 12 months creating advertising campaigns for local non-profits, making art, and learning how to collaborate with 12 other people.

I was lucky enough to join Byron Oshiro and Jim Riswold as one of the directors of the school partway through it's 6th year. The 7th class just graduated. We're gearing up for the 8th.

Rather than talk about what I've done as part of the school, I'd much rather share the list of our most recent graduates. Click on any of their names to see the wonderful work they created over the last year. I'm proud to have gotten to the chance to know and work with every single one of them.
