Hi, I’m Doug

I grew up in the Los Angeles area, where skateboarding first opened my eyes to design, motion, and storytelling. Somewhere along the way, I picked up a camera — and that became my way of connecting with the world. As a pretty introverted kid, video and photography gave me a voice before I even realized I was developing one.

Eventually, I headed north to study film at UC Santa Cruz. After graduating, I joined Apple’s Retail Development Team, creating marketing and promotional content for new store openings and events. It was an incredible learning experience — fast-paced, collaborative, and always centered around craft.

After a few years, I took a leap and co-founded Bokeh with a few friends from college. What started as a small creative experiment has since grown into a remote-first agency working with brands like Apple, Spotify, DoorDash, Coinbase, Lyft, Instacart, Google, Airbnb, Visa, and Instagram.

As Executive Creative Director, I’ve helped lead and oversee projects that span video, animation, OOH, social, web, branding, experiential, and beyond — all rooted in the idea of making work that connects and feels human.

These days, I’m based in Portland, Oregon, where I live with my wife, Sara, and our son.
