Purple Hayes

You’re not just looking for a run-of-the-mill creative leader.

You want one with a dope nickname, like “Purple Hayes.”

One who thinks in words and visuals because he’s a writer who’s a real son of an art director.

One who’s experienced life on 6 continents (if you count Middle Earth).

And one so consistently different, you can bank on him ordering the pizza, but are shocked to hear his favorite topping is BBQ sauce.

Good thing I know a guy. He’s the one in purple.

I’m a business, mannn
