Summary

Chris is an entrepreneurial strategic creative fire starter


I have made it my duty to get inside and work with a wide gamut of channels and agencies in brand communications. I have developed a rather unique and broad perspective to creatively engaging and communicating by working alongside some great people and companies over the years, such as

Saatchi & Saatchi, where I was a consultant Associate Creative Director, was just one part of my advertising collaborations as a contributor to strategic integrated proposals and day to day projects. Albion, where I was a senior creative, is where entrepreneurial creativity was pushed by me as well as happily taken up in an open integrated ideas agency. Ketchum Pleon, where I was a consultant Creative Director / Strategist, allowed me to share my broad agency experience while helping to develop long term ideas and strategies for various global brands with a PR perspective. Slipmode, where I was creative founder partner, is where I collaborated with design and communication innovation in a lab environment with few boundaries

I thoroughly believe that my diverse creative background has helped open me up to be a highly capable creative catalyst in these ever evolving times for brand communications, customer relationships, and brand innovation

With all of this experience developed in over 15 years of collaboration as a creative thinker and doer, it has helped me guide the story of brands through unbound creativity, perceptive and insightful research, and my strategic sensibilities
Specialties: seeing the bigger picture - strategy - creative - brand communication - pitching curveballs - entrepreneurial mindset - design and aesthetics
