FROM THE DESK OF
TOM LLEWELLYN - Creative Director
"Robb is a natural leader. by which I mean that he will lead without being asked. He began leading the first day here, by setting an example with his level of engagement, his level of energy, and his great ideas. He's one of the select folks I invite to brainstorming sessions, because he consistently contributes great ideas. Mostly though, he is a kick-ass designer."
SCOTT VARGA - Creative Director
"In a corporate environment where there are numerous teams that need to stay in sync with each other, he demonstrated his ability to work with moving targets and multiple constraints that often cause miscommunication, errors and disorganization. Not with Robb, this is something he was able to handle with a smile everyday, as well as the ability to stay on top of projects and make sure nothing slipped through the cracks."
LANCE KAGEY - Creative Director
"Robert Bartlett is arguably one of the best creatives I’ve ever worked with. His skill set is a great balance between understanding the current digital technologies, strong creative problem-solving and having that eye for good layout and design. Whether it be interactive/mobile applications or high-end print pieces, Robert’s execution is always thorough and well-developed. I also find him insightful when delivering rationale in presentation settings. As Art Director with my team he always found ways to encourage the other creative talent without watering down our tendency to soften the requirement for top-tier design quality."
