Schooled in both visual communications and engineering, Ben Thoma is a visual problem solver. Before working in advertising, he had stints as a non-profit home repair organizer, a collegiate mascot, a political grassroots organizer, and a Mac Genius. As an art director, Ben has developed marketing, direct mail, and promotional campaigns before finding a natural fit in interactive/digital advertising. His clients have been as varied as his experience, including: TIME Magazine, Lufthansa, Johnson & Johnson, Wells Fargo, Frank's RedHot Sauce, Dos Equis, Claritin, and Volvo. He's most excited by projects that involve creative solutions that are surprising, original, and inevitable.
