Darryl is the creative we all want to be, the guy who is just crazy enough that his ideas work. He is fearless, he is bold, but he is also brand right. His heart and soul are into everything he touches, but he also really hears you when you have feedback. He is an incredible mentor and teacher, creative director and fantastic art director. If Darryl wants to work for you, pay him whatever he wants and watch what he can do.

I had the privilege of working with Darryl on a variety of major accounts. Together we managed and developed brand campaigns, social media platforms, broadcast content and ran various new business pitches. Throughout it all Darryl was always a welcome, calm yet commanding presence in any meeting, often seen by coworkers and clients as the respected leader who had the solution. If you have a chance to work with him, grab him!

I had the opportunity to work with Darryl on several retail clients. He was one of the leads in Creative and I was in Client Service. Darryl has a knack for interpreting the client business problem and translating it into meaningful, on brand and on strategy creative. He takes constructive criticism well and strives to better the work even when the work is brilliant. Darryl would be an asset to any team and I highly recommend him.
