Stephen is a phenomenal account lead, consistently operating above and beyond his job responsibilities through his deep creative and strategic engagement with every project he touches. His willingness to truly own his accounts made him an excellent partner to our clients at all levels, from the day to day managers to executive stakeholders. His creativity and strategic thinking made him a highly valued internal partner as well, and members of both the creative and strategy teams repeatedly inquired about Stephen's interest in their own disciplines. Fortunately for me, Stephen chose to stay in account services. Stephen's support of the IBM account during my time at Leopard was invaluable and made a significant impact on the success of the account, and I would strongly recommend Stephen to any account services team.

Stephen is a very impressive Project Manager. His overall knowledge is vast and impressive and even more so when it comes to online projects. I honestly don't know what we would do without him. His ability to meet challenges head-on and in stride has always astounded me. He is always willing to step in and find the answers and always has a positive attitude and is a pleasure to work with. He is very thorough and hard working and her always exhibits a "can-do" attitude, meeting every challenge enthusiasm and eagerness. I highly recommend him both for hit persona and for his work ethic.

      Strategists at Ogilvy are multi-hat-wearing team members integrated into most aspects of a project. We serve as client-facing experts, creative direction support, internal evangelists, researchers, thinkers, writers, doers, and makers. As part of the Ogilvy Denver team, our focus is the practice of Employee Experience. Activating Marketing. Enabling Sales. Helping clients engage their workforce and build meaningful interactions, all of which translate to better experiences for the customer. In my role, I serve as the focal SME on some of the most complex technology projects that we work on, from AI and Cloud to new financial payment solutions. I help my clients think employee + customer first -- How will this make their lives better? What are we providing that is differentiated? What level of brand trust and belief are we fostering with this work? Making brands matter from the inside out. Show less

As the Creative Brand Strategist for IMM, I helped my clients find marketing solutions to their business challenges. I combined brand knowledge and experience across a vast array of industries to find sweet spots for my clients to operate. I led all brand identity and development engagements including discovery sessions, executive alignment, and all aspects of creation, including copywriting and strategic positioning. I worked in tandem with my colleagues to identify market positioning and deliver creative against established metrics, all while maintaining the integrity of the brand and connecting with customers.

      Leopard strategists are thinkers and doers. I was responsible for developing strategically sound solutions and approaches to meet my clients' business objectives through intense collaboration with our agency partners, both internal and external, as well as taking the lead on discovery, market research, analysis and planning.I developed the client and creative briefs for CDW, Advantech, and continued support for multiple divisions underneath the IBM portfolio. Furthermore, I served as the subject matter expert for both client-facing meetings and internal kick-offs and meetings. I developed and drove strategic recommendations for work, content, messaging, and execution on behalf of my clients. I brought strategic backing and planning to my clients in the areas of B2B content development, sales enablement, change management, and the customers' and buyers' journeys to promote an analytical approach backed up by creativity, ROI and effectiveness.
