About Ryan Blum

Chief Creative Officer overseeing VML’s Dallas, Austin, and Memphis offices, with a passion for making brands not just seen, but felt. I’ve been lucky to help build ideas for 7-Eleven, Intel, Pizza Hut, Samsung, and T-Mobile — where we helped “The Un-Carrier” climb to the #3 wireless carrier in North America. My path has taken me from Dallas to Seattle to Memphis, where I helped open the VML office for the U.S. Navy account — a ten-year partnership that’s delivered some of the most meaningful (and unexpected) creative challenges of my career. Along the way, my work has been recognized by Cannes, The One Show, Effie, Clio, and even caught the attention of two sitting presidents. These days, I’m still in it for the craft: chasing ideas that stir something and spark a “damn, I wish I’d done that” from across the room.
