I'm Rob Teague, an executive creative leader who's spent his career building brands, creative organizations, and a lot of things in between.
At Vans, I led a global creative org of 70+ across nearly every consumer-facing expression of the brand. Beyond the work, I helped modernize the organization behind it: campaign strategy, building new capabilities, developing talent, and aligning global teams around a shared vision.
At REEF, I helped define the brand's next chapter, then built the creative org to bring it to life through a renewed Brand Foundation, new capabilities, and a stronger creative ecosystem.
Before going brand-side, I spent 11 years at 72andSunny developing award-winning work for brands including Nike, Google, Starbucks, Activision Blizzard, and more.
