THE TEAM

Creator Deck was founded to create an authentic, fair, empathetic, and diverse space for creativity and collaboration. These elements have remained core to us as we’ve grown. We look for people who can think disruptively and meet challenges with a fierce creative spirit. Our team unites a diverse group of people from various backgrounds, who enjoy the collaborative, creative processes that go into making anything - from a single post, to a comprehensive marketing strategy, to a fully fledged brand.
