Spotlighting VP, Group Creative Director Stacy Schrack
Why do you love working with Stacy?
Spend any time with Stacy and you will notice a few things. A dope hat. A new hair color. The same quiet energy as her favorite drink: tea. Or wait, was it the same concentrated strength as her favorite drink: whiskey? Either way, I count on Stacy to always bring her best, bring out the best in others, and make both a joy.
—Dino de Leon, Executive Creative Director
Stacy brings a lens of creativity and leadership that inspires and motivates all members of her team. She knows how to focus on the client work while also keeping it real and taking time to catch up as a team and build morale. I mean, she taught me about Texas Homecoming Mums! Look them up!
