Russell Quinan specializes in building brands that cut through noise and create lasting connections. He blends deep market insight, competitive strategy, and storytelling that resonates on a human level—helping companies define who they are, why they matter, and how to win.
Always ahead of the curve, Russell was a founding partner of one of the West Coast’s top interactive agencies back when “digital” was still a buzzword. Since then, he’s led game-changing work at agencies like Publicis, Foote, Cone & Belding and McCann Worldwide, shaping campaigns for Microsoft, HP, Sony, Levis, Adobe, Xbox, L’Oréal, Wells Fargo, Alibaba, and more. From launching Xbox Kinect to reimagining tourism marketing for entire regions, his work delivers both creative impact and measurable results.
A board member of the American Advertising Federation, Russell lives in Marin County with his family.
When he’s not crafting strategies, you’ll find him playing in a band, expanding his guitar collection, charging down Marin’s mountain bike trails, or trying to cook meals worth bragging about.
