I’m Hames, a marketer, 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, ski, 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, directing creative teams, managing athletes and content creators, and working with companies who care about community and craftsmanship. Whether I’m shaping a campaign, shooting photos, designing a piece of content, or digging in the dirt with a trail crew, I’m happiest when I’m building something meaningful.

My dog, Finn, is usually by my side. He reminds me what pure curiosity and joy look like  and why connecting people to nature matters.

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  work that reflects the places and communities that have shaped me.
