Luke Duggan

Creative Director Art

New York, NY, USA
An award winning Art Director on the best global brands for the past 20 years. Originally from Sydney, Australia, currently in New York City. My career spans the biggest (and smallest) advertising agencies, making cool stuff with filmmakers, photographers, designers, gamers, musicians, athletes and artists. I’ve been the Lead Art Director on dozens of successful pitches, worked for a museum, and aim to create positive change through emotive, culturally relevant, human experiences. All with a little humor chucked in the mix.
