I’m Hames, a marketing director, creative director, photographer, trail builder, and lifelong outdoorsman, who believes in the power of good stories, good design, and wild places.

​

I grew up moving through mountains, skateparks, and forests, and that love for the outdoors shaped everything I’ve done since. I’ve worked across the outdoor, bike, snow, and action-sports industries as a marketing leader and creative partner building brands, leading campaigns, shaping visual identity, and working hands-on to bring ideas to life.

​

I’ve spent years building trails & snow features, directing creative teams, managing athletes, and working with companies who care about community and craftsmanship. Whether I’m shaping a campaign, shooting photos, designing, shaping terrain parks, or digging trails, I’m happiest when I’m building something meaningful.

​

I’m driven by:

• The outdoors and the cultures built around it

• Simplicity, honesty, and great design

• People who create with purpose

• Dogs and the bond between humans and their companions

• The feeling of movement: skiing, biking, skating, exploring

• The craft of making something that lasts

​

Whether leading a team, shaping a brand, or documenting a moment outside, I’m here to create work that feels real, and work that reflects the places and communities that have shaped me.
