Pretty obvious promotional article with sentences that could only be written by the article subject or someone they paid to write about them "more importantly, is the owner of four pika Chews (three sons, one daughter)". The only reference is an 3-sentence official blurb, probably also publicist-written. He won a Clio Award, but I am skeptical of that being a real claim of notability. It looks like there were 1,215 Clio Awards given in that year alone. Here2rewrite (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 14:33, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Seems to be a marketing exec, so sourcing I find is all PR-ish items [1]. Not sure what a pika is, his children? Regardless, delete for a lack of sourcing. Oaktree b (talk) 16:06, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:TNT and WP:GNG. It’s difficult to take this seriously when the lead talks about his hair. No reliable sources, no article. Bearian (talk) 06:10, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
