Russ Rizzo is a Creative Director at Tombras NY. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.

Previously, Russ was a Creative Director at Slap Global, also in New York City. There, he made a promo campaign inviting customers to commit promo abuse called SeatGeek “First-Time Buyers”. He also helped create a new award show where judges have less than 5 years' experience in the industry called the Astroland Advertising Festival.

Before Slap, Russ was an Associate Creative Director and Writer at CALLEN in Austin, Texas. There, among other things, he created the voice and most everything for CALLEN's NIL dijon mustard brand, Bijan Mustardson.

Before CALLEN, Russ was a Creative at Mother in Los Angeles, California. There, he wrote the “When All You Can Food is Think About” brand platform for Postmates, which consisted of a Don't Cookbook, multiple film campaigns, outdoor, radio, and a fully cooked recreational swan boat. A year into the work, for completely unrelated reasons, Uber bought Postmates for 2.65 billion dollars.

Before Mother LA, Russ was a Copywriter at Barton F. Graf (R.I.P.) in New York City, where he mostly made work for Little Caesars and lost a bunch of new business pitches. Don't tell Gerry, but Russ had a lot of fun.

Before BFG, Russ studied Copywriting at the VCU Brandcenter in Richmond, Virginia. He also had fun there too as well.

Russ grew up playing competitive hockey in Buffalo, New York. He's gone unselected in the NHL Draft for 16 consecutive years, and is now playing advertising in New York City. Russ currently lives, eats, makes, and sleeps in Park Slope, Brooklyn with his creative partner and partner partner Casey Phillips. Together, their work has been awarded by Cannes, D&AD, The One Show, and more.
