We don’t like talking about ourselves. But if others want to do it, well then, be our guest.
“When Gregg took over as creative director for our San Jose International Airport account, one of the first things he did was come to the airport and spend a full day asking smart questions and “listening.” He paid careful attention to understanding what we needed and what we were missing. And before long, he and his team came back with great, creative, on-target concepts and executed a fantastic campaign that was exactly what we needed. It was incredibly well-received by Airport leadership and the community — and it drove fantastic results, including massive increases in engagement, clicks and so on. The campaign also won first place for digital advertising campaigns in North America's 2019 airport industry annual marketing awards. Gregg was a pleasure to work with every step of the way, and I would be delighted to collaborate with him again.”

“I love ONeill. He understands context which is quite often a hard skill for less seasoned creatives to wrap their heads around. It probably comes from his experience in big agencies in NYC and smaller agencies in NC and San Diego. The fact that he’s egoless is gravy. Can’t go wrong here.”

“When Gregg single-handedly took on the redesign of our company website at Civilian Agency, he asked all of our staff to contribute to our new "Team" page by describing ourselves in five words. If I were to describe Gregg in five words they would be: Value, Lightning-rod, Storyteller, Tough, and Wisecracker. This is the guy you want in the room when your back's against the wall and you need not only the idea, but the idea with the killer pitch. Gregg is that rare bridge connecting wisdom from advertising's golden age with an adept understanding of the modern media landscape and how to design for it.”

“When the USPS was charged to behave like a business, we turned to FCB to help shape that image. Along came Gregg and his creative genius. Simple turnkey promotion and advertising campaigns that yielded enormous results were his brain child and are his signature. His masterful intervention helped the USPS grow the stamp collecting business from annual profits of $100 million to well over $400 million. Of particular note were the creative campaigns in support of the Olympic Games held in Atlanta. A consummate professional, committed to delivering for clients, Gregg is someone I would have on my team in any game!”

“Gregg brings a level of strategic thought to the creative process, so that what he creates is not just creative for creative-sake, but a deliberate business approach and strategy that drives the bottom line. His positioning work with McGladrey and subsequent creative was excellent and continues to this day.”
Eric Webb (former Client)
Sr. Marketing & Brand Director @ McGladrey
“Gregg is bar none, on so many levels. He's a creative powerhouse capable of executing a strategically-driven vision for the big idea, while also bringing to the table useful knowledge about the technologies and media to set it on fire. He's an incredible motivator and manager, a creative director confident enough in his abilities to inspire those around him, and humble enough to let members throughout a team shine in the spotlight. And he's a wonderful person with firm ethics, genuine character, sincere compassion and a rib-cracking sense of humor through it all.”
