Hi, I’m Josh.

And after all these years, I still haven’t figure out the perfect about page.

So, here’s a list of beliefs. Not in stuff like lizard people or aliens (though the truth is out there). More so guiding principles that got me where I am, and maybe where I’m headed.

Thanks. Hope to be in touch soon.

• A curious, creative mind is the ultimate industry cheat code. Doesn’t matter if it’s building a pharma brand from strategy to campaign, connecting with clients at a pitch, helping direct reports find their way, or the 18,000 other tasks we juggle at any given point. Thinking different delivers the most impactful results

• When I was 10 years old, I got my first job as a paperboy for the Brockton Enterprise. Delivering tens of thousands of newspapers for 6 years gave me the blueprint for success throughout most of my adult career, including these gems: be on time; give a damn; treat people with respect even if they don't return the favor; be mentally and literally quick on your feet; the customer is never wrong, but it doesn’t mean they’re always right; beware of dogs

• There’s nothing like the intensity and learning opportunities of pitches. And the best win is always the next one

• Most challenges are, at their core, communication challenges

• While doctors love data and science, they’re still human beings who respond to emotional storytelling

• Craft is everything. But it’s also a painfully overused word that just means, details make the difference

• Beware of the “leader” who talks a lot and has all the answers. They’re usually full of shit

• Listening and asking questions are wildly underrated skills. But you still have to know how to command a room

• Providing for my family is my biggest motivation. A close second is the fear of not being able to provide for them

• There’s no stopping change. Embrace it. But that doesn’t mean we need to forget what got us here
