About Nick Lipton

Build brands. Craft stories. Uncover human truths. Currently building my own dream with incredible new brands and founders. Reach out if you want to join the journey. Former: VP of Brand & Creative for Ace Hotels & Atelier Ace, Group Creative Director at Havas / Annex Chicago, Creative Director at Leo Burnett World Wide, Equinox and Graduate Hotels. I\'ve been fortunate enough to invent a few big brands, craft stories across five continents and develop products, packaging and fully immersive campaigns across hospitality and entertainment brands, billion dollar CPG companies, tech firms and more.Outside of Adland I create and publish photo books. I\'ve had the pleasure of publishing various photo projects for some great photographers, and a few of my own. My first,\"White Knuckle\", was called,\"Exhilarating.\" by Vice Magazine. Fun fact, years ago my co-workers and I founded the LogBlog app. A poop joke that developed into the #1 source for #2 news.
