Advertising Agency OKRP Announces New Creative Head

In a significant shift at the Chicago-based agency, OKRP, Aubrey Walker has been promoted to the role of Executive Creative Director, effective from 2021. Walker succeeds Laura Fegley, who recently departed from the agency.

Fegley, who joined OKRP from Colle McVoy as Chief Creative Officer (CCO) a little over a year ago, left the agency during the summer. Her departure marked a change in leadership at OKRP, with Matt Reinhard and Tom O'Keefe temporarily leading the creative department during the transition period.

Reinhard, who stepped into a growth and innovation role at OKRP following Fegley's arrival, has now taken on a more active role in the creative department. Meanwhile, O'Keefe, the founder and CEO of OKRP, has been instrumental in guiding the agency through this transition.

Before her departure, Fegley held the position of creative lead at OKRP, a role previously held by agency founder Matt Reinhard. Her departure occurred a little over a year after she joined, leaving a significant void in the agency's leadership.

As the new Executive Creative Director, Walker will be responsible for leading the creative department at OKRP. Walker received help from Reinhard and O'Keefe during the transition into his new role, ensuring a smooth transition for the agency.

At this time, there is no information available about the new managing director of the creative department at O'Keefe Reinhard and Paul starting in 2021.

Walker's promotion to the role of Executive Creative Director is a testament to his skills and dedication to the agency. OKRP now has a new leader for its creative department, and with Walker at the helm, the agency is poised for continued growth and innovation.
