Mentor Session: Paul Dery
Executive Creative Director, R/GA Austin.
Since arriving in America and R/GA four years ago, Paul has played a key role in marrying the various agency offerings with compelling storytelling. Crafting successful campaigns such as MasterCard’s “Ask Buck” and The AdCouncil’s “That’s Not Cool.com” to name a few.
Paul, much like R/GA, started his advertising career in production. After an apprenticeship in the industry that included a successful foray into Account Service, Paul completed the holy trinity of advertising and made the final jump to join the Copy Department of M&C Saatchi in Sydney.
Helping establish the R/GA Sydney and Austin offices has been Paul's latest endeavors. His love of ribs and sport has made his transition to the Lone Star State an easy one.
