Gil’s been a creative in TV and advertising for over 15 years. My favorite part about Gil is he animated over a hundred episodes of the show South Park. Yeah. We know, you know, South Park. He’s also helped brand powerhouses like Coke, Ben and Jerry’s, and Vitaminwater communicate their messages around the world.
Gil has worked with many different capacities in his career. He’s also worked alongside me with our clients at Fingerprint Marketing to help with branding and messaging and strategy.
