Create
Meaningful Experiences
I create brand & consumer experiences for clients that align with their values, resonate with target audiences, and leave a lasting positive impression. By focusing on creating unique experiences, brands can differentiate themselves, build customer loyalty, increase conversion and establish a strong, lasting identity in the market.
Be Creative.
Be Bold. Be Responsible.
Throughout my career, I have developed a versatile skill set that spans creative direction, brand development, consumer engagement and team management. I not only lead the creation and execution of strategic, data-driven campaigns but also be a strong, trusted leader and mentor for my fellow teammates.
"When I had the pleasure of bringing Ian onto my creative team a few years back, he made an immediate impact. He is a reliable team leader and a strong conceptual thinker. As a highly skilled artist with an exceptional eye for design, I relied on him to deliver the high-impact work our clients expect. Ian is a proactive creative, eager learner, and a trusted, hard worker. He collaborates seamlessly with his copy partners and is well-respected by his account counterparts. Ian's peers also hold him in high regard for his strong attention to detail and positive spirit.
Ian's contributions have been invaluable, and he has consistently exceeded expectations. He would be a tremendous asset to any creative team."
Tim Moore
SVP, Group Creative Director
"If you had an all-star creative team, who would be on your roster? Ian Kelly's on mine, and I've been doing this for decades. Ian and I met as freelancers, collaborating on retail programs for White Claw and Mike's Hard Lemonade. If you've worked on- and off-premise programs for RTD cocktails, you KNOW how difficult it can be–especially when you have multiple brands in a portfolio vying for the same accounts during the same time periods. When my well ran dry, Ian always had an idea or two or twenty to get us back on track. He's an idea guy who can explain how it works, and why it works. (A rarity in my experience.)
I'm happy to continue to extol Ian's virtues as an art director, collaborator and all-around great human."
