Chris Stephens graduated with a degree in Copywriting (which he uses a lot) and a Masters in Communication (which he uses a little.) He has worked as a Copywriter at TBWA Chiat Day NY and Goodby, Silverstein and Partners, and as a Copywriter & Creative Director at Barton F. Graf.
Joey Ianno graduated as an Art Director but quickly discovered his talent for writing. He was the first creative hire at Barton F. Graf where he was promoted to Creative Director in 2015. He has helped make some of the defining work at Barton F. Graf for clients including Kayak, Dish Network, and Supercell.
Chris and Joey have been working together for five years now since they partnered up as Creative Directors at Barton F. Graf. They specialize in writing and concepting but can also think visually. They write scripts, think up big brand ideas, can do basic comps and at least fifteen push ups (combined.) They can pull swipe and reference and help make decks. They also play nice with others.
This is a picture of Scottie Pippen, Michael Jordan, and Phil Jackson. Chris and Joey are in no way implying anything, they just really like this photo.
