partner/creative director

Years ago, at Ken’s first ad agency job interview, he was asked whether he was a writer or an advertising guy. He said “writer.” He didn’t get the job.

Since that time, Ken has discovered the correct answer to that question. He’s worked on a bunch of high-profile local, regional, national, and international accounts over the past 30 years. He’s a founder of Tonic Indy, one of the city’s most popular annual charitable events. He serves on the board of Southeast Neighborhood School of Excellence (SENSE) and is an advisor to Second Helpings. He also helped start Second Story, on organization dedicated to changing kids’ attitudes about creative writing.

Because, even though he’s an ad guy, Ken still thinks of himself as a writer, and, in fact, has sold poetry and short stories and written a couple of handsful of books. Also, he was once fired for pointing out a grammatical error to a client, who insisted it wasn’t a problem—proving once again that he would rather be accurate than employed.
