San Francisco Brand Design Agency DDW Announces New Leadership
San Francisco, California (PRWEB) June 23, 2016 -- DDW (formerly Deutsch Design Works) announced today that Mike Goefft has joined the firm as Managing Director. Theresa Scripps, formerly DDW CEO, will now lead the DDW Advisory Board and take on special client assignments.
Goefft was most recently Executive Director Strategic Partnerships at Doremus, the Omnicom B2B agency, and prior to that held leadership positions at several global agencies, including serving as COO of Y&R San Francisco. In these roles, Goefft has created numerous award-winning campaigns for brands like American Express, Sprint, Kellogg’s, Chevron, The North Face, and HTC.
Goefft will be leading the agency along with Ross Patrick, Executive Creative Director, who joined DDW in 2014.

His insight sets the strategic foundation -- authentic, motivating and truly electrifying brand stories that inspire truly fresh brand design.”
“We’re also expanding our service offering. The new DDW is about creating deep brand stories that inspire fresh brand design – from brand identity, naming and package design, to brand experiences that are more digital and experiential,” says Goefft.
