Tripp Westbrook’s Summary
Highly creative thinking and execution can be a powerful differentiator in an otherwise noisy and commoditized marketplace. Tripp strongly believes that clients who adopt this “challenger” way of thinking are far more dangerous to their competitors and can accomplish more with less by leveraging big ideas and a scrappy, media agnostic plan.
Breaking convention to make a brand’s promise and point of view salient and resonant with consumers has been a hallmark of Tripp’s work for the past 17 years. Since his early days as a writer at The Martin Agency in Richmond, Virginia to his latest challenge as ECD of Firehouse in Dallas, his creative efforts have been rewarded with awards in every major national and international show. From gold at Cannes and the Effie’s, to Clio’s, D&AD, The One Show and CA.
A few of the brands that have benefited from his imagination are: Saturn, Holiday Inn, Southwest Airlines, Nikon, Mercedes-Benz, American Legacy Foundation, Land Rover, SBC (now AT&T), Maggiano's Little Italy and Pennzoil.
