Hey, I’m Tim-
As Executive Creative Director for MullenLowe my focus was bolstering our creative reputation through effective, distinctive and disruptive work. Work based on compelling strategic and brand insights brought to life with craft. By doing so I was at the forefront of the office's rapid expansion and growth taking it from a singular shop in Boston to establishing offices in both Los Angeles and New York in under 6 years. Pivotal to that growth was attracting and fostered amazing talent from around the globe all of whom played an essential role in this body of work.
I am grateful to have been recognized for our efforts. Awards include Cannes Lions, the Cannes Grand Prix, the Grand Andy, the Grand Clio, ADC, D&AD and two Emmys for digital experiences. I’m equally proud of creating work that works, winning the gold Effie for sustained success for JetBlue, E-TRADE and JAMMRS, among others.
Prior to joining MullenLowe, I worked as a creative director and partner at Modernista!, the fastest growing independent agency in the country at the time, It was there that the power of non-traditional thinking and innovative problem solving were ingrained. I also enjoyed my time at Arnold Worldwide, where I had the good fortune of working on the famed Volkswagen account, and Leonard Monihan Lubars & Kelly where I cut my teeth by working with and surrounding myself with some of the best in the business.
