Dave Fitzgerald, a proud grandson of Irish immigrants, is the father of six and grandfather of three. He started Fitzgerald & CO (now Fitzco) in 1983, sold it to the Interpublic Group of Companies (IPG) in 1998, and bought the agency back from IPG in 2020.
Dave was named Most Admired CEO by the Atlanta Business Chronicle in 2017. Irish America magazine has included Dave on it's "Business 100" list of the top 100 Irish American executives in the US every year since 2005.
He is Chair-elect of Cristo Rey Atlanta Jesuit High School, a member of the Board of Directors of Emory Saint Joseph's Hospital, the National Advertising Review Board and The Atlanta Speech School and is immediate Past Chair of the Saint Joseph's Health System. He is former Chair of the Saint Joseph's Hospital Foundation, Ignatius House Jesuit retreat Center and the Buckhead Coalition. He also served on the boards of The University of Dayton, the 4A's, Marist School and Christ the King School and the National Black Arts Festival.
Evan discovered advertising at age 6, when he first realized the Incredible Hulk TV show would always cut to commercial when Bruce Banner’s eyes turned green, but before he completely freaked out. He’s watched the commercials ever since.
Evan started at Fitzco in 1996 as an Assistant Account Executive. He’s since served as Account Manager, Account Director, New Business Coordinator, Copywriter, Creative Director, Chief Digital Officer, Managing Director and now, President. (Perhaps this one will stick.) Evan proudly represents Fitzco on the boards of both 4As Atlanta Council and Advertising for Change, a coalition of agencies committed to cementing Atlanta as the leading city for diverse advertising and marketing professionals.
The only two titles that matter are husband and dad-of-three (two human, one canine). He fancies himself an undiscovered Food Network star and is determined to someday open a true Katz’s-style NY deli which is, in his estimation, the only substantive thing his native Atlanta is lacking.
Keri is a native Atlantan who loves living in this “city in a forest” – spending the workday ITP at Fitzco’s Westside office and returning to her pastoral OTP home with her husband and dogs.
Keri happened into advertising some 30+ years ago – she joined a friend working in the accounting department at McCann Atlanta, and immediately fell in love with the pace and vibrancy of the ad world. It was a happy accident that has led to a successful career in the industry with stints at McCann, BBDO, and Austin Kelley, before she joined Fitzco with the merger with Austin Kelley in 2005. She’s been a vital element of Fitzco’s success over her tenure, navigating an ever-changing industry with a level head and contagiously positive demeanor.
Keri is a long-time runner having completed 21 marathons and numerous shorter races over the years. She and her husband of 26 years, Mark, are parents to two rescue beagles, her family and her passion.
Ryan is a self-proclaimed “southernmidwesterner” (raised in Georgia, made in Chicago) and lover of all things creative. He believes every pixel & every word matters.
Throughout his career he has produced award winning work for Nintendo, Sony, Budweiser, Samsung, Coca-Cola, McDonalds, Miller and Checkers & Rally’s. He gives a damn. Every. Single. Day. Helping clients grow their brands and in turn growing Fitzco. He’s passionate about creating a culture of creativity so every Cannes Lions, D&AD, One Show, CLIOs, ADDYs, OBIEs or EFFIE won is felt by all. He’s pretty proud of being a dad too but can’t take all the credit. His wife gets a big slash.
When he’s not busy creating ads you’ll find him busy designing his AirBnB side-hustle FieldTripAtl.com with his wife. A unique tiny house experience they run promoting the best Atlanta has to offer.
Stephanie is from 84, Pennsylvania (yep, the number 84) and was drawn to New York for college and the start of her career, where she met the love of her life, a Southerner who convinced her to try out the Empire State of the South.
She cares deeply about the creative we make, the consumers we serve, and the clients with whom we partner. Throughout her career she has built relationships and driven business results for The Home Depot, New Balance, Guinness, Red Stripe, Duncan Hines, Vlasic, BOTOX Cosmetic and L’Oreal/Garnier, McCormick, and Coca-Cola. She sat onsite with clients at a Fortune 25 company and, through deep partnership, won their business and trust every single day.
But her biggest achievement is raising two happy and very funny kiddos. And running a marathon. Probably not in that order (the second one was MUCH harder).
To Jeff, “home is where the job sends you.” Born and raised an Army brat, Jeff has taken that same mentality to his career. Though a native Georgian, Jeff spent the first ten years of his career in New York, with one year in Beijing in between.
Jeff’s commitment to completely immersing himself in his clients’ business and category has made him an integrated and passionate extension of their marketing teams. A triple threat with deep experience and relationships across strategy, creative and media, Jeff’s focus and passion has always been in solving client business problems through the tight integration of media and creative thinking.
His 19 years of experience between McCann NY and Fitzco spans a wide range of categories, and nationally and globally-known brands. Since joining Fitzco, Jeff has led integrated teams across Sony Mobile, Synovus Bank and Checkers & Rally’s. His leadership on Synovus helped unify and grow 28 local bank brands into the regional powerhouse Synovus is today, and Jeff’s efforts on Checkers & Rally’s led to the best two year traffic and sales increases in the brands history. While at McCann, Jeff’s experience included L'Oréal, Intel, IHG, Kraft, Nestlé Waters, and Unilever. He also spent two years on a New Business team that won Intel and the U.S. Army.
He also beat-boxes, which we promised not to include in his bio. Oops.
Claire had a life-long ambition of becoming a meteorologist – a career path with arguably the highest allowable margin of error. Interested in patterns, logistics, and outcomes, she ultimately landed in Advertising and Consumer Economics. She’s a big believer that making it matter means not losing the human side of the science. You’ve got to care your ass off in this business, even with algorithms at your side.
She hit the ground running managing and growing Paid Search programs for Verizon Wireless, Verizon Enterprise, and Johnson & Johnson. She went on to build the Paid Search discipline from the ground up at Fitzco and now leads our media team across clients inclusive of planning, platforms, ops, and analytics.
On the weekend, you can find her supporting her husband’s side hustle flipping sneakers, exploring Atlanta’s food scene (#1 fan of anything Ford Fry), or trying to make the perfect spicy margarita.

Hannah is a native Floridian, who found both of her loves at the Creative Circus – her husband, and advertising. Living with another art director has filled her life with home reno projects, type books and bold wallpaper. She believes that no matter what, giving back matters.
Throughout her career she’s made notable work for Lay’s, Wrigley, Quaker, Gillette, Hasbro, SC Johnson, Alka-Seltzer Plus, Aleve, Navy Federal Credit Union, and French’s. She’s also worked on and led numerous winning new business pitches.
Her most recent creative accomplishment is French’s Mustard Ice Cream. But the Misfitz internship program is her biggest accomplishment at Fitzco.
When Hannah’s not making ads herself, she’s probably teaching others how to. She gives back by teaching at the Creative Circus, serving on panels for Miami Ad/Portfolio Center and being a mentor to the next gen of creatives.
Jason is an Atlanta native, born and bred, and has a deep love for the city he calls home. After attending the United States Military Academy Jason came back the Peach State to complete business school at Georgia Southern University and get his career jump started.

It’s a fine line, but Jason prides himself on being able to identify relevant cultural insights that drive transformative marketing solutions. Throughout his career, Jason has contributed to brands such as Smirnoff, Shinola, NCR, Samsung, Jiffy Lube, United States Virgin Islands, and GlaxoSmithKlein.
When he isn’t servicing client teams he is most likely hanging out with his wife, energetic 2-year-old son, and their sweet dog. When they get tired of him, he loves working out and feeding his sneaker addiction.

Brian has lived his entire life within a few miles of where he was born and raised in rural Cherokee County and is currently Vice-President, Manager of Digital Creative Services. He believes that creativity plays a role in solving any problem in life, not just in Advertising.
During his career, he has won awards on his work for Coca-Cola, Bank South and Vanderbilt University and has worked on a multitude of clients during his 38 years in the business, including Chick-Fil-A, Georgia-Pacific, Checkers & Rally’s, Navy Federal, Delta Airlines, Synovus Bank, Southern Company and Pillsbury.

Brandi Watkins is a digital native with a love for number crunching. Her original career aspirations of working for NASA (specifically, as an astronaut) didn’t necessarily pan out. But fortunately, her interest in advertising did. Brandi is a passionate media veteran who has spent career on the agency side of the business leading digital strategy and performance marketing campaigns for brands such as Verizon, AT&T, NBA, Lenovo and Shoe Carnival. She believes making it matter means caring about the work and the people doing it.
Brandi was born in Birmingham, AL, but considers herself an ATLien as she has lived in Atlanta since childhood. She loves all things ATL (especially the music). She has a passion for travel and has a life goal of visiting every continent (including Antarctica!).
Lindsey is back home in Atlanta after spending 12 years in NYC. She’s dedicated to fostering meaningful relationships and building trust with her teams to garner impactful results. During her time at Fitzco she has worked on Navy Federal Credit Union, The Southern Company, and Synovus.
In NYC, Lindsey focused on generating brand love with Millennial moms on Gerber, helping lead Tylenol's back to market plan to rebuild their equity gap, getting scrappy with In The Raw Brands and Cutty Sark to compete with the their big-budget competitors, highlighting new innovations with LG Global Appliances, and earning her production creds with JCPenney.
Lindsey is always planning her next trip, whether that be a short drive out of town or international flight. She likes trying out new recipes and eating new things. People are usually surprised by her fascination with the WWE (she’s already attended at least 7 Monday Night Raw events and on the search for WrestleMania tickets!)
Caroline is from Alabama (her accent would tell you that before she even had to), an ex-journalist in the culture and music realm, and a glutton for a good mountain-top view.
She believes that helping businesses find their “why” is crucial for client success. Minding the small details while understanding the big picture is a key strategy in digital media.
Caroline doesn’t just care for the brand, she cares for the client, and her team. She’s got digs in marketing, media, and account management for small businesses, non-profits, and large corporations. And her experiences run across a number of brands to include: GAF, Eyecare Partners, Alys Beach, Golden Flake, UTZ Quality Foods, YMCA, Birmingham Convention & Visitors Bureau, University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham Zoo, Red Diamond Coffee + Tea, and Southern Shirt.
When she’s not optimizing digital campaigns or digging deep into data, you’ll find Caroline somewhere outside walking/running/swimming/hiking with her dog, Charlie.
Natalie grew up in Florida, and calls Orlando home. After graduating from the University of Alabama, she moved to Atlanta to pursue a career in Advertising. She believes advertising today is changing for the better and is proud to be a part of it.

When Natalie is not busy learning new things, she can be found on long walks with her dog Holly, reading a good book or sampling some local breweries.
Juliana isn’t sure where she’s from. Born in England to a Uruguayan mother and an American father, she grew up across 8 countries. Juliana is, however, reasonably sure that she is a copywriter at Fitzco. She is extremely sure that a sense of humanity is what makes our work matter.
Throughout her career, she has crafted work for Fanta, MedExpress, Southern Company, Checkers & Rally’s, Navy Federal Credit Union, and Mellow Mushroom. She’s also contributed to Fitzco new business wins, including Pillsbury and Hilton Hotels & Resorts.

When he’s not helping to create memorable first impressions with Fitzco, he's flipping through non-fiction, writing short stories, working on hip hop music, and being in awe of this earth.
Bryce shares a birthday with world renowned film director Stanley Kubrick. Coincidence? Yes. But it is something that helped inspire him in becoming a student of all things film. Whether its editing, directing, script writing, or sound design, he enjoys the entire process of making pictures come to life. Bryce is a storyteller.

All in all, he wants to leave the world a better place than what he found it in. And one frame at a time is the path he has chosen to accomplish just that.
Oh, and he golfs… He wouldn’t say a lot because that doesn’t quite encapsulate it. But he golfs.
Lisa is a native Atlantan, born and bred by her family to be a Yellow Jacket. Nonetheless, she ended up graduating from Georgia State University and ultimately became a loyal member of DawgNation.

He draws on these experiences to create work that is thought provoking and smart.

Crystal is a proud New Orleanian, born and raised in the Crescent City but now calls Atlanta home. As a graduate of Clark Atlanta University, she utilizes her alma mater’s motto as her mantra – “find a way or make one!” She’s a solution-oriented person determined to find or make ways to add value to every client she touches, treating their business as if it’s her own.

A seasoned veteran of TV, radio, and online video content, these days you can often find him tackling new mediums and non-traditional projects. Some of his toughest challenges have won him awards at Cannes, The One Show, The Addys, and The Webbys. But he also loves to get his hands dirty with editing, directing, sound design, and more.
A yes-man at work, he’s even more of a yes-dad at home, raising his three kids primarily as an excuse to act like a child and play make-believe. Occasionally, he uses his family to go viral on Reddit and YouTube. And he likes to waste what little free time he has playing video games and watching sports.
Isabelle was born and raised in Georgia. Growing up with a knack for technology and puzzles, she found her place in the world of digital media. She believes that combining strategy with data-driven insights helps turn work into work that matters.

Since starting she has worked across the Buffalo Wild Wings, Mellow Mushroom, and Synovus accounts on the Digital Platforms team.

Like every little girl with big dreams, Emma grew up wanting to be an “astronaut-veterinarian” Not knowing how that would work, Emma settled on an advertising introductory class at UGA. From that first class to her first introduction to Fitzco, Emma fell in love with advertising and developed a new dream: working in an ad agency.
Her main goal is to be purpose-driven in everything she does. From campaign optimizations to data-driven insights, Emma believes everything must be done with thoughtful purpose in order to drive success for her clients. Purpose-driven doesn’t just stop with her job – purpose drives Emma’s relationships with her family, friends, and even her two puppies (though some might call puppies past ages 6 & 12 years old, “dogs”).
Emma works on MedExpress, EyeCare Partners & GAF Roofing. Her favorite part of working on such uniquely different brands has been the teamwork required to achieve each client’s specific business goals.
Emma’s passion for advertising carries over to her personal life as well, taking a “vacation” to the Cannes Lions Festival of Creativity. Her favorite part of the festival was getting to hear from the best and brightest as they talked about innovative changes in the industry. The endless supply of French pastries was an added bonus.
When Emma is not QA’ing campaign drafts or carefully wooing a pacing doc, she loves putting her pop culture expertise to the test in weekly trivia nights, watching reruns of Friends, perfecting her margarita recipe, and devouring any spicy food in sight.
Krystal is a born & bred New Yorker, growing up right outside of NYC. The nice weather and even nicer people are what initially drew her down to the south. She believes hard work, curiosity, and a positive attitude can get you anywhere in life.

Outside of the office you can find Krystal planning trips around the world, camping at live music events, petting every dog in sight on the beltline and searching for the best margarita in the city (recommendations always welcome).

Another notable endeavor: Ana has recently picked up the art of Tarot card reading, so feel free to reach out if you’d like to be a guinea pig.
Growing up a die-hard Georgia Bulldog fan, Savannah had her sights set on being a sportscaster and was wholeheartedly and unapologetically prepared to dethrone Erin Andrews as queen of ESPN. Shortly after starting school at the University of Georgia, she determined being a television personality was not all it was cracked up to be and ultimately found herself in the world of Advertising and Media. She is a big proponent of making it matter, as it goes hand in hand with hard work.

Adam is the self -proclaimed “Fitzco-Yankee”. A true New Yorker (Born and raised in the Bronx), he moved to Atlanta in the summer of 2018.
Adam started his career on the publisher side of advertising learning the basics of the digital landscape from the ground up through the lens of publishers like New York Magazine and CafeMom. Thirsty for more of the technical side of the business he moved onto Cadreon where he developed his Ops skillset working with clients like Johnson and Johnson, Sea-World, and Coca-Cola to name a few. After spending years in the New York City Media space he decided it was time for a change and has been running digital operations at Fitzco ever since. In doing so, he ensures that every digital touchpoint matters.
When he is not setting up complex tagging matrix’s and digital ad campaigns, you can find him in Piedmont Park walking around or trying all of Atlanta gastronomical offerings. As any true New Yorker, he is highly opinionated about Pizza and Bagels.
Pete is a Massachusetts native who’s recently taken a real liking to Georgia. In another life he worked as an account executive on brands like McDonalds and Hood, but his love of writing, art, and all things weird eventually led him to Fitzco. He believes that creativity can solve anything, but only if you remember to have fun with it.
As a copywriter, Pete has done work for Mellow Mushroom, French’s, and MedExpress. He’s also been recognized by the One Club and the ADDY’s for his student work. However, his proudest moment will always be winning the pinewood derby in the 3rd grade.
When Pete isn’t making ads you can find him playing gin rummy with his girlfriend, making a mess in the kitchen, playing the guitar too loud, or working on his screenplay for the final installment of the “National Treasure” franchise. Yes, it’s real. Yes, it’s almost finished. No, the studio hasn’t returned any of his calls.
