Sean has a beautiful eye for design and a unique mindset that leads to the generation of "awe-inspiring" concepts. Creative is the 'face" of any innovation in any of the work we do, Sean has a knack for ensuring that the "jaw drop" moments fully aligns to the real needs that the business demands. Sean's leadership was critical for many of our initiatives, as there were tight deadlines, and sometimes nebulous asks of the creative team. Sean takes ambiguity in requirements and shines light on it, while motivating the team to create things that are truly meticulous, thoughtful, and game changing. Sean is not afraid to tell you when things aren't going well, and to offer suggestions on how to get the creative process and interaction with creative back on track. Sean's deep understanding of how creative can elevate everything a company produces, and his experience in guiding this energy to produce great work are what make him a critical asset to any organization. I will gladly work with Sean again when the opportunity presents itself to do so.
