LISA BENNETT

About

Hi! I’m Lisa. I've been helping brands and agencies develop award-winning, business building creative for over three decades. I served in the role of Chief Creative Officer for 17 of those years at three different agencies, including DDB San Francisco for 10 years. I was Executive Director of The Lab in the School of Advertising & PR at The University of Texas, and Vice President of Global Brand at Dell Technologies and Head of Dell Blue, the in-house creative agency.

This experience provided me the opportunity to work with world-class talent across multiple disciplines. I continue to mentor and partner with many of those talented people. Our work has been recognized with the highest awards including a Gold Cannes Lion, D&AD Yellow Pencil, and induction into the Clio Awards Design Hall of Fame.  

Currently, I’m Co-Founder and Brand and Creative Consultant at Scott & Lisa. We help challenger brands, global brands, and everything in between define their brand positioning, create compelling strategies, and develop innovative content. You can check out our website here.
