Life is short—so work with and for people you like. That’s DMG. Ken founded DMG in 1993. Question everything. Shape perceptions. Challenge convention. Elevate brands. Those have been our goals since the beginning. Ken believes that great work comes from great individual contributions in tandem with selfless, candid collaboration and teamwork. Ken was an executive at several leading financial services companies, which provides DMG with invaluable client-side insight and perspective. There is no assignment that escapes his attention—or passion—for excellence. When Ken is not leading DMG onward, you’ll find him hiking the Adirondack High Peaks, sailing the clear blue waters of Lake George, or traveling to far-off places.

A DMG fixture since 2002, Karen has the temperament of a Golden Retriever…and the determination of a bulldog. She can assess a situation, devise a plan of action, and start making it happen as if it were an effortless stroll in the park. Karen combines strategic and aesthetic sensibilities, an eye for detail, and a friendly, relaxed composure that keeps clients coming back. Grounded. Thoughtful. Smart. Dependable. She doesn’t stop working until expectations have been exceeded. She loves anything paranormal, her furry kids, volleyball, kickboxing, and most of all her two girls. Social distancing does not come naturally to Karen.

Christie isn’t the kind of person who sits around wondering what to do next. She’s already doing it. Since joining the team in 2006, she’s been managing projects big and small, with a fierce determination to ensure that clients get great work—on time and on budget. Solving client challenges is her passion. No whining. No drama. Attentive listener. Creative problem solver. Exudes confidence. She’s all-in on every assignment. Christie loves travel adventures, the Patriots, red wine, and family. She’s a best friend to more people than she will admit to. And BTW, Christie can throw a ball impressively far.

If you want to stand out and make a powerful creative statement, Kjell’s your man. He has the eye of a designer, the mind of a strategist, the passion of an artist. Since joining DMG in 2014, Kjell has demonstrated that he is the perfect blend of visual problem solver and creative thinker. “Don’t sleep until you absolutely nail it,” is his mantra. But his tenacity and drive are always tempered by a laid-back style and wry sense of humor. Away from his studio, Kjell can be found at an avant-garde film festival or in his garage trying to coax a forgotten classic roadster back to a charmed life.
