Our business isn't all fun and games. Except it's pretty fun. And sometimes we play games.

Kristin Brighton, Principal

Kristin Brighton

Ms. Brighton is an expert brainstormer, severely allergic to pets, and wary of the beach because of her propensity to burn. Clients love her good instincts and tendency to think big, as well as her ease with sizable campaigns. She loves historical dramas, costumes, and the pairing of chocolate and Doritos.

Her Myers-Briggs profile is the rare ENTJ, indicating she would make a great world leader, or an excellent dictator. A night owl and constant thinker, she recently rebranded a local shopping center in her sleep. She owns a pair of “Gone With the Wind” commemorative plates, and found best-selling novel “Water for Elephants” to be “meh.”

As a middle schooler, she was once staring at a crush, and promptly walked into a pole. Her dream vacation does not involve Branson.
