  • Adrienne Cardon

    CMO - CREATIVE AND STRATEGY

    In my 20+ years in the industry I’ve strategized, designed, written, and crafted unforgettable experiences for brands of all sizes across all mediums and in all industries.

    I’ve written radio spots for Burger King, created experiential events for Volkswagen, designed brand identity for Pause/Play, architected brand messaging for PECO Pallet, directed television commercials for cable networks, crafted luxury long-form copy for Blackstone, and even written sitcom scripts. (I have an IMDB page! Major life accomplishment!)

    As a veteran of the ad world, I have a thorough understanding of the strategic and tactical processes of executing B2B and B2C campaigns for Fortune 500 clients and mom-and-pops alike. I’m ready to take any project from ideation to execution—from luxury real estate to consumer goods.
