Hi, I'm Cort

I'm a creative hybrid – from digital & ad agency to in-house – who writes with range, finds an unexpected angle and crafts language with substance. Currently writing, creating content and developing the voice for Cowboy, the original connected bike from Brussels, Belgium.

 

In my found and free time...

​

• Sketching & writing a book, inspired by my dog Pepper

• Chasing the fog

• Crushing on literary magazine INQUE and artist Robert Montgomery

• Admiring the voice & content game of Satisfy, Rapha, Whalebone and Lost iN

• Rereading some of the books that crossed the Atlantic with me to Berlin
