David Kessler  Founding Partner

"In order to penetrate the receptive callous that consumers have developed over time, the best marketers will begin to look beyond traditional projective communications and recognize that the ambient interactions with a brand are powerful and leave lasting impressions. The synchronization of a brand’s multiple expressions allows it to communicate on an intuitive, subconscious level, which is what we love to help facilitate."

Prior to co-founding Starfish in 2002, David spent over 20 years as an advertising executive. Most recently, he was Managing Director of Hill/Holliday’s New York office. David also served as Executive Vice President at Foote, Cone Belding responsible for the global AT&T account and at Lowe Lintas & Partners supervising the global Sony account. David is renowned in the industry for his business savvy as well as his ability to anticipate and deliver upon his clients needs.
