Dean’s background includes launching products, companies and campaigns that have left indelible impressions on industries, including the PR launch of the Chick-fil-a Cow Campaign, the scale and sale of Moe’s Southwest Grill, reputation management support during the BP Gulf Oil Crisis, managing public relations for the largest Atlanta Olympic Sponsor, introducing Starbucks to the Southeast, and more recently, the launch of Carvana, one of the more successful Atlanta company launches in the last 10 years.
