Vince Galdi
Chief Creative Officer
We live in a new business and marketing world where media fragmentation and instantaneous communications are changing all the rules. And business in general has become more competitive on every front, with new players from every direction imaginable. Having come up in marketing communications first as a copy editor, then in various roles in creative, account management and strategic development to my present day position as agency and business owner, I’ve been fortunate to have worked with many talented individuals, monster brands, international conglomerates and small start-ups with big visions. Yet at almost every new client meeting I hear myself saying, “if we want to achieve different results, we need to do things differently.” Sounds so simple, but it’s the mindset required to deliver innovative marketing programs.
Michael Ramos
Senior Director of Digital Marketing
Call me a mad scientist of digital marketing, but really I am just having fun doing what I love while building your business. You need leads? You need traffic? You need an amazing website that builds your business? I bring a ton of start-up and agency experience that always saw the internet as an opportunity to make money and build business. My passions are marketing automation, email marketing, and website design. It gives me a chance to set up my ideas, work with real-time data, and nudge (influence) the behaviors of the people I am reaching to take action. Then I optimize and do it all over again.
When I am not emailing someone, I am a Band Dad and binge watching TV.
Diana Wolff
President
In the last few years the advertising world has been turned on its head. To me this represents a tremendous opportunity for a new kind of creativity – one in which the lines between media, messaging and audience blur or even disappear. While the consumer side was first to take up the challenge, right now we’re doing some really exciting work in B2B marketing, helping lead the migration to a more authentic connection between provider and community. It’s truly gratifying to see our clients recognize the value of our integrated programs and the solid results they achieve. Plus along the way we get to have some fun doing serious work.
Kevin Handerson
Vice President, Account Services
I found Marketing by the long route, after working in technical R&D, product management, and business management. Technical products are more predictable than people, but the two disciplines (marketing and engineering) have a lot in common. Both are creative, problem-solving challenges, with important results depending on the choices and actions taken. Both have some fairly rigid rules, yet both have wide flexibility to accommodate new ideas and approaches. At LRG, we enjoy delivering outstanding results, using the right balance of new and proven ideas.
Arthur Clarke said that “any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” After working in both worlds, I know that a sufficiently advanced marketing program can deliver equally astonishing results. Most businesses would benefit from improved marketing; our mission is to show them what they’re missing.
Sara Chaput
Vice President, Public Relations
Public Relations is more than press releases. When people ask what I do for a living, I sometimes have trouble putting it into words. Not because I don’t know, but more because it can be hard to define. Coming up through the ranks at LRG from intern-level magazine clipper to VP of the PR Department, I’ve had my hand in so many different aspects of marketing and outbound communications, calling it public relations seems too limiting. It also means more than just the day to day, behind the scenes workflow – we insert ourselves into our clients’ marketing teams and in turn bring those clients into our family. We understand that the key to our clients’ success lies in the ability for our team to start with the defined strategy and integrate all of the marcom pieces together. As an LRG “Lifer” this is my second home and I’m happy to have grown up here – developing my coffee addiction, learning about good wine, more trips to Vegas than I can count (with many Bloody Mary’s) and gaining confidence in my marketing instincts.
Keith Kanestrin
Vice President, Operations
We’ve got your back.
Short deadlines – no problem. New product launch – we’ll research and learn everything we need to know so your campaign is a success. Need something designed and printed for a show in the next day – done. We’re not only a marketing agency; we’re your partner – a seamless extension of your job, department, company and you. That’s what we do and have been doing it for our clients for over 30 years.
And along every step, we’ll communicate our thoughts, ideas and progress for each project. Every client is treated like you’re the only client - whether you’re a small company just starting out, mid-sized and growing or have an established international presence. Our diverse team is dedicated to your success. With several of our employees having client side experience (including myself), we know your challenges and will develop plans to achieve your goals.
That’s LRG; we know your business and will work tirelessly with passion and commitment to succeed. Let us show you what we can do.
Ryan LaMarca
Account Supervisor
Advocating products and services comes naturally for me. I’ve been doing it in one way or another long before I made a career of it. At LRG I get to be part of a team of “professional” advocates for a broad range of clients, applying my background in security, software, and brand management to help ensure the most effective marketing plans are executed. Whether that means making content submissions for clients, or acting as their representative at trade shows and events, LRG can handle anything they throw at us.
When I’m not working at the agency, you can find me exploring the world on two wheels or at the race track sharpening my riding skills.
Nancy Conklin
Business Manager
I handle all things related to numbers, spread-sheets, accounting, budgeting, banks and procurement. Sometimes tedious but always important. As a wearer of many hats, I’ve played different roles throughout my 15+ years here and have seen some of our favorite concepts from development to strategic positioning to creative execution come to fruition with nothing less than a game-changing effect. Our talented team will make you re-think what the value of an advertising agency can do for you.
Nicole Milillo
Media Director/Account Supervisor
One of our long time clients recently decided to revisit outbound advertising with a limited budget and set media plan for a short span of time. After one month our client mentioned they couldn’t believe the added exposure, traffic and leads they began to receive. “Were the results a coincidence?” These are the moments we live for. Every step we take is proven and accounted for. Our clients work hard for their money and we make damn sure their money works harder for them. Our job is to prove time and again that we can change results for every one of our clients regardless of their type of business, audience, goal and budget. Our results prove that consistent advertising creates efficient brand awareness, and that constant evolution creates a call-to-action of its own. We’re here to listen, brainstorm, make new strides and surpass goals. With LRG Marketing, you’ll get a family (the kind you’ll actually like to keep around). Individuals that, quite literally, high-five when we accomplish something amazing together.
Emily Barker
Account Supervisor
We’re never really told we’ll love our first job. We’re led to believe we’ll find a mediocre position that’s only used to help us move along to the next part of our professional life. Luckily, I’ve found this not to be true. Your first job can be with a company that cares about you, about what it does and the content it creates. And, if you couldn’t tell already, that’s what I found here. A passionate, results driven family that works tirelessly together to make our clients’ marketing, public relations, advertising and branding dreams come true. A family that supports your Harry Potter addiction and bad jokes, while endlessly working to achieve the House Cup…I mean, the results our clients deserve.
Jenelle Barnett
Account Supervisor
Clients want to live in a world where their content is creatively and precisely delivered and their business plan is supported 100%.
Our job at LRG is to create that world, and my job as an Assistant Account Executive is to help guide clients through it. Working together as a team, we can communicate, create, and convey your ideas into kick-ass, noteworthy, tangible content. I’ve always found it interesting to watch friends and family evolve and grow. This same notion helped spark my interest in Public Relations and now I’m able to provide clients with industry insight to help them evolve.
When I’m not working with clients, I’m a reptile mommy to a bearded dragon by the name of Monty.
Kirsten Detweiler
Art Director
If you like what you do you will excel at what you create.
Working for a company where everyone is equally passionate about what they do as you are is really rewarding, and that is what I found here at LRG.
We do our best to go above and beyond our clients’ expectations, working closely with them to create content that is true to their brand values and is new, refreshing and relevant in today’s fast-paced digital world. With design trends changing so fast, our clients need an agency that is on top of these trends and helps them and their brand evolve along with them. My role here at LRG supports this process.
Coffee and pizza fuel my creativity. Luckily we have plenty of both here.
Amanda Hahn
Digital Marketing Manager
Digital marketing is today. Digital marketing is the future. Social media, websites, emails, analytics, content, you name it. It's what keeps me on my toes. This industry is changing every day- which is why I am never bored. I wake up every morning excited to see what the day might bring. My previous experience working within the music industry and with a start-up application paved a strong foundation for my career in digital marketing. I am so grateful to be working with such an amazing and experienced team here at LRG. When I'm not working or scrolling through my phone, you can find me listening to music or running at the gym.
Jayme Cunningham
Account Supervisor
Coming up with new and creative ways to meet business objectives through marketing has become one of my great passions. Having worked in B2B marketing nearly 20 years on the client side, I have been in your shoes. I know what it is like to rely on your agency to deliver high-quality content and creative - quickly, on-time, and on-strategy. It is my objective to provide that level of service to each of LRG’s clients.
Miguelina 'Lina' Diakite
Account Supervisor and Digital Marketing Coordinator
I have always been passionate about marketing. As a person who appreciates art, I believe it’s the most creative part of the business world. With great storytelling, art, and targeted messaging you can create business-changing content.
While working as an account manager in the past, understanding clients and their needs has always been a strength and enjoyment of mine. Working with the LRG team gives me the opportunity to explore my passion for marketing while highlighting my strengths.
When I'm not working I am taking photos, enjoying nature or doing both!
Mike Sassano
Digital Marketing Coordinator
The future of everything is digital. I’ve seen it over the course of my life, technology exploding and advancing at an unprecedented rate. The only way to keep up is to ride the wave and get ahead of the competition. It’s the essence of what draws me towards marketing, and digital marketing specifically. I love - the dynamic nature of it, how no two days are the same.
I bring that same energy, drive, and enthusiasm with me everywhere, especially here at LRG to provide the best possible service and then some. When I’m out of the office, you can find me watching movies and history documentaries or out and about with friends.
