Every brand we touch is a decision — a decision to stop blending in, outgrow the generic, and step fully into what makes you actually unforgettable. At The ADS Agency, we don’t make pretty things for the sake of it. We make bold, strategic brand moves that feel like you — and only you — with just the right kick.
Because the world doesn’t need more copy-paste brands. It needs the real ones — the ones that lead, elevate and turn a few heads along the way. That’s not just branding. That’s brand evolution. And that’s what we do.
When your design and messaging align, your brand doesn’t just show up — it stands tall. It builds trust, commands space and earns its edge over time.
That’s what we’re about: helping bold, evolving businesses create brands that last — and land — in all the right ways.
You in?
No. o1
Thoughtful. Meticulous. Built to last. Our aesthetic is clean but never cold — designed to feel like your brand’s next chapter, not just this moment. We believe in timeless visual identity rooted in clarity, confidence and undeniable authority.
No. o2
We start with story — because it’s the one thing your competitors usually overlook. Before the visuals, before the messaging, we uncover the heart of your brand - from your target audience's perspective - and shape it into something they'll actually remember.
No. o3
We’re an eclectic crew with big hearts, sharp minds and zero interest in surface-level work. We only take on brands we believe in — and when we do, we’re all in. Every idea, every pixel, every word is shaped with care, built to last and made to work.

NEVER

Before launching this agency, I was leading global brand strategy from the inside — serving as Marketing & Branding Director for a multinational company in Scotland and managing M&A projects worth over €160M.
I never planned to become an entrepreneur — at least not until what I hoped would be early retirement (in my 40s!). But life had other plans.
In my mid-30s, after landing in a new city with what should’ve been an easy hero job, I found myself in a toxic work environment that rattled me to my core. It affected my health, my confidence and everything I thought I knew about myself. But as I started rebuilding in Atlanta — meeting new people, grabbing coffees, offering marketing and branding advice when asked — everyone kept saying the same thing: You should just do your own thing.
I wasn’t ready… until the fall of 2016, when an architectural firm owner handed me money and said, “I’m going to be your first client. Tell me what to pay you.” A second client — owner of several staffing firms — came along by the holidays. I was shocked that even with all the mistakes (undercharging, no plan, just vibes), those two small clients were covering the bills.
By January, I had a choice: take another dream job in corporate or keep building this thing of my own.
I chose this. And I’ve never looked back.
I don't have human kids but these guys are pretty close: Nitro, Millie & Vanilli.
Coffee in the mornings, tea in the afternoons.
I do consider myself Honorary Scottish - having lived and worked there for a year.
Alaskan Native (Tlingit), Filipino and Black. There: the ethnic mystery's gone.
I'm secretly obsessed with murals (in every city I go to)!
A LOOK INSIDE MY WORLD
Where the best in branding, design and strategy come together.
Still here? Perfect. Then let us take you behind the curtain.
ADS isn’t your average agency — we’re the founding force behind The Double A Coalition: a curated network of top-tier creatives, strategists, PMs, developers, ad specialists, videographers, photographers and more. A collective built for brand elevation.
Yes, the “Double A” nods to our name — The ADS Agency — but it also captures our ethos: Artful and Analytical. Ambitious and Attuned. Adaptive and All in.
We created this coalition to bring together the best of independent talent under one roof — for clients who need strategy and storytelling, insight and execution. All aligned. All in sync.
Because when you choose ADS, you’re not just getting an agency.
You’re gaining access to an entire ecosystem — designed to build brands that actually work.
IT'S rare TO FIND AGENCY OF THIS CALIBER willing TO WORK WITH SMALL BUSINESSES and I CONSIDER MYSELF LUCKY TO HAVE FOUND ADS.
