About Me
I'm Steven Gray, a Creative Director with 20+ years of experience leading brand strategy, creative direction, and marketing execution for tier one global brands. Over two decades in the industry, I've built a career around bridging high level creative vision, hands on technical execution, and marketing strategy.
What I Do
I combine creative leadership with strategic marketing execution, spanning motion design, animation, brand strategy, content, social media, and paid advertising. Whether leading internal creative teams, guiding external agency partners, or driving audience growth myself, I thrive on turning ambiguous briefs into polished deliverables and measurable results.
Where You’ve Seen My Work
My portfolio spans broadcast, digital, and interactive projects. Highlights include Super Bowl spots, national social campaigns, and a New Year's Eve takeover in Times Square. I've collaborated with major brands including Nintendo, McDonald's, Samsung, Walmart, WeatherTech, Starburst, and Coors Light, partnering with agencies like Leo Burnett and DDB along the way.
Lotty Learns
In 2016, I co-founded Lotty Learns, a children's phonics education platform. I've continued building it on my own time over the years, driven by wanting to give kids real tools to learn to read. Beyond creative direction, I've led the platform's marketing from the ground up, growing our YouTube channel to over 334,000 subscribers and 72.8 million views through content strategy, social media, paid social advertising, and SEO.
