TAMPA, USA // Troy dated his wife for 30 days before kissing her, and on that same day, he proposed. She said yes, and they’re now celebrating 27 years of marriage. Sometimes you just know, and you need to go for it.

Professionally, he is owner and CCO of Dunn&Co, a branding, advertising and production agency located in Tampa and London. He opened the agency in 2003 following consultantcy stints with ABC-TV and TV6, which found him living in Moscow, Russia and Odessa, Ukraine for two years. He’s worked on notable brands like GE, Starbucks, Hyatt, Trivago, Firehouse Subs, and the Tampa Bay Lightning, and through the years has been recognised for excellence at the One Show, Emmys, Clios, Epica, NYF, Sharks, Obies, and Nat’l ADDYs. In 2022, his agency was named a Small Agency of the Year by Ad Age, and in 2023, he was inducted into the American Advertising Federation’s Hall of Fame for the State of Florida.
