Hi, I’m Taran, a Creative Director/Writer that invented a device that changed blood donations, took on bankers during the recession, and created the first reality video game ever. My work has spread globally with zero paid media, garnering a haberdashery of recognition and awards.
I believe that positive change is scary.
That’s why I love smart work that scares the sh*t out of people.
