Emily Viola

With over 15 years of experience in brand strategy, I have brought fresh thinking to brands as diverse as Campbell's, Gillette, Kraft, Sharp Electronics, Guinness, Merck, United Technologies, and others. A natural-born planner, I'm an equal balance of right brain and left brain strengths.

I'm also a self-confessed knowledge junkie. I believe you can find a fascinating side to any subject if you dig far enough. I also spend my daily commute from Brooklyn as well-deserved quiet time to catch up with my latest podcast obsession, "Radiolab."

I'll fight for ideas I believe in with a grace and authority that will win over any client. I am extremely passionate about my work and especially about fresh, strategic thinking. In brand planning, behind each door is another waiting to be opened; that's the force that gets me going every morning.
