HELLO

SVP Creative Directors | Currently at BBDO New York

We’ve been in the business together for over fifteen years, creating culturally relevant, award-winning work for some of the most influential brands in the world. We’re talking different genres, with different budgets, for different vibes, in different countries. We’ll own accounts, lead the work, win new biz, and look out for the younger teams.

TL:DR — if you got a problem, we got an idea (or six). And Green Cards.

HARD TIME

Where it all began

Joe started his career as a Flight Simulator Engineer. Before taking the next logical career step into advertising. He began at JWT London, moved to AKQA, then jumped to their New York office. Now, he’s at BBDO NY, where he lives with his family and dog, Chip—in the big ol’ concrete jungle where his dreams are made of. But perhaps his biggest achievement was refraining from filling this paragraph with ‘flying’ puns. He’s proud of himself.

Ricky delved into the creative world as a freelance illustrator before becoming a one-stop-shop for Gumball 3000. For just over three years he art-directed, strategized, designed, illustrated, and everything else that needed to be done – all from the front seat of a Maserati. However, in 2012, he switched lanes from in-house to agency, arriving at AKQA. With eight years under his belt, split across the London, Tokyo, and New York studios, he started his next chapter at BBDO New York. When he’s not up to his eyeballs in briefs, he can be found building websites, begrudgingly designing friends’ wedding invitations, and flying his drone…in places he probably shouldn’t.
