CHIEF CREATIVE OFFICER, THE MARTIN AGENCY, RICHMOND
Virginia Business// August 30, 2023//
The Martin Agency’s chief creative officer since 2020, Robinson oversees ad campaigns for big-name clients like Geico, UPS and Old Navy and was named Ad Age’s 2022 Chief Creative Officer of the Year.
It’s no coincidence that during his tenure, Adweek named Martin its Agency of the Year for three consecutive years, from 2020 to 2022, and Ad Age recognized Martin as the top ad agency for 2023.
Robinson joined Martin in 2004 and held executive roles in client and creative departments before his promotion to CCO. Robinson previously co-founded ad agency Vigilante, where he was behind Oprah Winfrey’s famous 2004 car giveaway.
A graduate of Hampton University (then Hampton Institute) and Atlanta University (now Clark Atlanta University), Robinson got his start working as an associate creative director for The Guild Group. He serves on the board of Creative Ladder and is a former board chair of Feed More.
