Team Players
Mark Wyatt
President
Mark is a straight shooter in a duck blind or in a conference room. Mark's passion for branding led him to the inevitable— opening his own shop. Since then, Mark has been assembling a cast of characters as enthusiastic about making brands famous as he is. Mark has spent most of his career honing his strategic and tactical skills on national and regional brands alike. Mark has overseen award-winning work for healthcare, hospitality, restaurant, oil and gas, package goods, retail, technology and real estate. Mark sees his job as more than simply building brands. He sees his job as anticipating a client's unmet and unforeseen needs.

Artie Megibben
Executive Creative Director
A Dallas native and graduate of UNT, Artie joined the team at Agency Creative in early 2008. For over 25 years, Artie has been busy putting brands like Pace Picante Sauce on the map. His long-running “New York City?!!!” campaign helped turn the underdog San Antonio brand into America’s brand of choice. Artie did the same thing for Subaru. By making Paul “Crocodile Dundee” Hogan the rugged face of the Subaru Outback, Artie helped launch the Japanese Crossover as an enduring classic. His creative leadership has also helped re-energize brands such as Nationwide Insurance, Greyhound Bus Lines, Hyatt Resorts and American Airlines.

Marketing is like marksmanship, only you get fewer bullets
Aubrey Johnson
Senior Account Executive
Aubrey is a born advertising woman. When other little girls were taking ballet lessons, Aubrey was creating ads. After finishing at the University of North Texas, Aubrey started up her career at the Hall Agency in Dallas. A move to Austin took her client side where she became Marketing Manager at Stubb’s Bar-B-Q Sauce. Aubrey has loaned her brand development talents to such names as P&G, SunGlass Hut, Home Depot and Intel. Aubrey still approaches every assignment with the enthusiasm and excitement of that little girl. We just have to pay her a little more these days.
 


Toan Dang
Senior Art Director
Toan was born in Vietnam. He came to the U.S. when he was just a kid. He says it was one of the best moves he ever made. Coming to Agency Creative was the other one. Toan received his BFA in Graphic Design from the University of Texas at Arlington. He landed his first job at May & Company in Dallas. After nine years there, Toan moved to the Loomis Agency to work on such accounts as Stanley Steemer, Century Bank, Pro-Cuts and Papa Johns. He brings to Agency Creative a keen eye and high standards. His striking logos, eye-popping collateral and imaginative websites continue to make our clients look good.

Practice safe design; Use a concept
Trevor Connolly
Art Director
Trevor has known one thing since the time he was three years old: he was destined to become an artist. Destiny, it appears, has brought him to Agency Creative. A master of Dallas Cowboy trivia, Trevor is a self-proclaimed geek when it comes to Facebook, Twitter, foursaquare and anything well designed. Trevor is a logo-designing machine and has a deep appreciation for typographical nuances. A recent graduate of Stephen F. Austin, Trevor loves all kinds of music, trying new foods, white water rafting and hanging out at the dog park with his rottweiler/shar pei hybrid, Bo.
 


Christie Ward
Project Manager
A graduate of the University of Oklahoma, Christie is a double threat. She does the job of office manager and world-class project manager. And that doesn’t include her Super Mom duties or the big “S” she has emblazoned on her chest. Christie is passionate about managing project logistics, over-delivering to our clients and doing her part to make the world a little better than how she found it. She is also in charge of Band-Aids®.
Nobody doesn't like a smile and a thank you.
 


Every empire every formed started with some dude making a list.
Kourtney Rader
Account Coordinator
Kourtney is a born Texan and has a Texas-shaped tattoo to prove it. A graduate of Northwood University, it’s Kourtney’s job to pester the rest of the Agency Creative team. She makes lists and checks them twice. She rides herd, takes names and kicks butt. But this is not her first rodeo. She comes to us from Boxcar Creative where she helped their interactive team excel on such accounts as Mission Tortillas, State Farm Insurance and Interstate Batteries. Kourtney has a passion for advertising, Social Media and industry trends. When she’s not making one of her lists you can find her baking pastries and playing Call of Duty on her Xbox.
