He is particularly skilled in defining design-driven growth strategies and matchmaking between startups and Fortune 500 companies. 


    David led design at Coca-Cola and was part of a turnaround team that helped double the value of the company in less than a decade, once-again positioning the brand as a cultural icon.

  • 029 → MATT SANTOMARCO ↗ the beauty of film photography

    Matt Santomarco is a film photographer based out of Denver, Colorado. He specializes in capturing the spirit of the American West through the use of grand scenics, abandoned homesteads and dramatic light. The images he captures make use of dynamic weather conditions and warm tones to harmonize a scene similar to the romantic paintings from the 1800's. During the colder months, Matt focuses his efforts into documenting the mid-century relics of yesterday; such as neon signs and Googie style motels.
