It’s Not What You Say

It’s what you do. And, often, what other people say about what you do.

  • “I’ve worked with Bryan for 20 years and he is my first phone call when I need the best, most innovative, creative mind on a tough problem. He’s never once let me down and I am always impressed with how he blends strategy and creativity, using curiosity to get to the very best outcome. I worked with Bryan on creative projects at Onyx, Smartsheet, Starbucks, and Syndio.”

    – Maria Colacurcio, CEO, Syndio (client)

  • “I have not witnessed mega creative brains as thoughtful, kind, respectful, and brilliant as Bryan. He assembles a wonderful team that continues to push for better work, stronger creative, and strategic direction. I appreciate that always comes with strong leadership behind the scenes."

    — Jen Crum, Marketing Director, Microsoft (client)

  • “Bryan is the sort of leader who recognizes when to encourage, when to nudge, when to champion, when to push, when to advise, and when to make the tough-love call. I think it comes from his near-psychic ability to understand clients’ needs better than they do.”

    — Chris Elliott, Group Creative Dir., Indigo Slate (colleague)

  • “Bryan has a rare combination of creative, business, and strategic capabilities that are a force multiplier in connecting the day-to-day needs of the business and the success of the client to creative executions. With a focus on customer-first experiences, Bryan is skilled at building bridges between creative, strategic, and technical teams to produce winning executions.”

    — Chris Geiser, Chief Technology Officer, The Garrigan Lyman Group (colleague)

  • “I’ve seen Bryan rally the team during unpreventable hiccups and use creativity to seamlessly deliver even the most intricate projects. He truly has the ability and innate curiosity to evolve his skills and master new talents.”

    – Amy Howard, Media Director, The Garrigan Lyman Group (colleague)

  • “The energy and positivity BC brings to every interaction and the way he brings the creative team together; he makes it all look so easy when I know it’s not. I always felt comfort and supported when I was working on a project with him. There’s just a natural uplifting spirit about BC, he’s one of a kind.”

  • “I’ve spent so many moments over the past decade and a half just watching Bryan and trying to take mental notes. Telling myself to be a sponge as I watched him intuit what a client wants but can’t verbalize. Or how he navigated a million tense internal disagreements. How he practiced accountability and made it a point to show respect to everyone he encountered. I was always looking to learn from Bryan and I feel like he taught me a ton.”
