Clay Carlson

Principal Brand & Sustainability Strategist @Dancing Chihuahua, Llc

Cleveland, OH, US

I founded Dancing Chihuahua to give businesses an edge—whether that’s streamlining operations, sharpening their brand, or finding smarter ways to scale. My background blends project management, digital marketing, and sustainability, which means I know how to align big-picture vision with day-to-day execution. Over the years, I’ve delivered custom software solutions for industries like construction and recycling, produced conferences for international audiences, launched large-scale beer festivals, designed projection-mapped events, and overseen bold branding projects like vehicle wraps. For me, success comes from building processes and strategies that are as creative as they are sustainable, turning ideas into experiences and operations that truly last.
