FOUNDER
Bilateralist-in-Chief
David is a self-proclaimed minimalist, father of 3, and the founder and leader of natrel. Though his style is minimalistic, he maximizes the agency’s potential by providing the resources and guidance needed to get the job done. Perhaps his greatest skill is making meaningful connections with everyone around him, whether they’re clients, colleagues, or his children.

As a writer, Bill likes to use his camera to see the world in new ways. Zooming in on new details, reimagining ordinary objects, finding the hidden in something we walk by every day. He brings that same curiosity to his work, digging through the data to tell the best story for his brands.
