BRIGADE Team Bios

Executive Creative Director
Kirsten Modestow
Executive Creative Director
I believe brands are built on consistency, strategic creative, and good old-fashioned hard work. I know that leaving egos at the door leads to collaborative solutions and that our amazing team is the secret sauce.
Creative Director
Robert Parker
Creative Director
My role is a hybrid of creative direction and strategy. I approach creative from an aesthetic and analytical point-of-view and work through projects at every stage – from top-level thought leadership to concepting, positioning, direction, presentation, refinement, and rollout.
Creative Director
Hali Miller
Creative Director
As Creative Director, I lead a wide variety of different projects from packaging design to social media strategy. I've always got my eye on the next trend and I love pulling inspiration from bathroom wallpapers. You can catch me at the golf course drinking wine.
Senior Creative
Jimmy Parker
Senior Creative
As a Senior Creative, I aid in exploring and producing eye-catching and thought-provoking work ranging from packaging, to advertising, to website design. I’m always searching for new inspiration to keep things fresh, original, and exciting.
Senior Account Manager
Elena Valenzuela-Stookey
Senior Account Manager
As Senior Account Manager, I manage a top-level view of our workflow, internal operations, and resourcing. I also help to coordinate our internal branding and marketing initiatives.
Senior Creative
Anthony Sarkis
Senior Creative
As a Senior Creative at BRIGADE, I work on a variety of projects from packaging, to website design, and ad campaigns as a result, I am well-versed across many mediums. When creating, I find inspiration from nature, animals, geometric shapes and organic patterns.
Strategy Development Manager
Liz Austin
Strategy Development Manager
As Strategy Development Manager, I work on moving the business forward from the inside out. Whether it be new client proposals and strategy or internal operations and finance, I’m your girl. And when I’m not on the clock, you can catch me dreaming of home improvement projects and breakfast foods.
Senior Executive Assistant
Glenys Rignall
Senior Executive Assistant
My official title is Executive Assistant and I work across all areas of our business and help keep a multitude of administrative and operational needs humming along as smoothly as possible. Outside of work, you’ll almost always find me spending time with my husband, son and two sweet rescue dogs.
Senior Creative
Steve Oparowski
Senior Creative
I play the role of a Creative and that has pretty much been the story of my life. I approach projects with a technical eye allowing plenty of room for creative juices. After work I take care of my sweet-little monsters and do crosswords with my wife, all while trying to feed my appetite for hip hop.
