Ralph is one of the most creative minds and thoughtful individuals I have worked with in my career. He strategically plans and presents his vision to the team and has a gift in this seamless execution from A to Z. Ralph is amazing and I highly recommend Ralph to any organization.

I had the privilege of working for Ralph during a pivotal time in my career. I was a young professional bracing through the corporate world wide-eyed and excited to find something I was passionate in. Ralph introduced me to email, social, and the possibilities of design through all digital channels. I was encouraged to explore, to try new things, to test boundaries and push the status quo. Ralph coached and guided my design and strategy, allowing opportunities for growth not only in-house but the through conferences, education, and creative development. I am so thankful for my time with Ralph and all that I learned because it has shaped the creative professional leader I am today. Ralph leads with an open mind, always listens, and appreciates all contributions and ideas. His knowledge is extensive and his passion for culture, design, and people shows in all that he does. I hope we can work together again someday!
