A close group of thinkers and makers, joined by people we trust when the work calls for it.

We come from different disciplines, but share the same instinct: look beyond the obvious, care deeply about the work and make it better together.

These are our people. We hope you’ll make them “your people.” They’ve been places. Done things. They are – to a person – kind, fun, talented (we think they’re brilliant, at least most of the time), internationally experienced, empathetic thinkers and makers who do creatively strategic, human-centric work that aims to shift culture in a positive direction.

  • Partner, Creative Strategist

    Ridiculously positive and prolific life-liver. Brilliant cut-to-the-chase-er. Past Creative Director for JWT, Razorfish, Microsoft Brand Team; Co-founder/ECD of Imagio Technology Advertising (acquired by WPP); Co-founder/ECD of 206inc (Experiential/branding agency for Levi’s, Southwest Airlines, Amazon, Toyota, Coca Cola, acquired by Amp/Advantage Solutions). Leads strategy, creative direction, narrative development, engagement and even finds time to write, which we love, because he’s really, really good at it. Hobbled by old lacrosse wounds, sneaks the occasional cigar, uses his five kids, 13 – 33, as a cheap focus group.

  • Partner, Creative Director / Designer

    It’s pretty simple, no Rachel, no The Human Impact Studios. She’s an extraordinary multidisciplinary Director & Designer with 20+ years of experience across brand, digital, ai, merchandising & apparel, experiential, campaigns, and events.

    Expert in several disciplines. Leader, director, designer, brand builder, strategist, collaborator, storyteller, and culture agent.

    She’s built brands from the ground up, evolved established ones, created visual systems and campaigns, directed teams and partners, developed on-trend apparel collections, and brought ideas to life across everything from a screen to a physical space.

    Not sure how all that experience and talent exists in one person, but it does.

    Fantastic to work with. Loves travel adventures with her family, music, and fashion. Keeps life balanced with heavy lifting, hot yoga, and Nordic skiing.

    We adore her. You will, too.

  • Partner, Writer / Content Creator

    Ex-pro athlete (Skiing/Cycling) who fell into writing at W+K and then went rogue, doing notable work for some of the world’s great agencies and brands, including: W+K, Publicis, Y&RNY/London, Chiat, Legas, Sockeye, Sorel, lululemon, Adidas, Nike, TEVA, Arcteryx, Toyota, American Express, NBA, Atomic Ski, and Polaroid (the rebirth), to name a few. Severe sickness for Winter, the snow, motos, the NBA/NFL/NHL, fashion, music and F1 that borders on the unhealthy. Used to live a double life as owner of a Ski/Snowboard coaching/guiding business in Cortina, Italy. He’s ours now, and we couldn’t be happier.

  • Business Growth Identifier & Go-to-Market Strategist

    Did he invent Strategic Thinking? When you talk to him, it seems like it – always informed, never pretentious, owner of a mind that never stops thinking. Ever. Michael brings a unique mix of strategic marketing experience and go-to-market savvy to our clients. Voice of reason, cheerleader of doing the right thing. Over the past 15 years, Michael has helped some of the leading B2B and B2C brands in the country achieve and exceed their growth objectives. He makes sure our ideas are always on-point. We don’t thank him enough for that.
