Hi, I’m Greg Dalbey
I’ve won employee of the month at every job I’ve ever had but you can’t really put that in the awards section of a portfolio.
Over the past 14 years I’ve worked with brands like Microsoft, Oscar Mayer, and Google as well as small startups finding their voice. I treat clients like partners and believe the best work comes from shared ownership and occasionally agreeing to disagree without making it weird.
What I bring to the table
I sit at the center of designers, writers, animators, editors and directors to create cohesive branded content and campaigns that break through feeds and generate real results.
