As chief strategist for the agency, Aimee is the visionary that sees every decision as a responsibility—when you work with cause-driven clients, every single decision needs to lead to the greatest possible impact. Aimee believes the 90,000 hours we work during our lifetime should be energized by purpose, strategic action and an always-learning mentality. With a rebellious spirit and an ability to see the “why,” the “what if” and the “why not” in everything, Aimee is driven to do what seems impossible—from hiking 2,200 miles along the Appalachian Trail to creating an agency that can advocate for the causes that matter while becoming an Inc. Best Workplace.

Meet Jess–office meteorologist, keeper of minutes, lover of jean jackets, master of post-its. As the keeper of the Black Sheep multiverse, she knows when it’s time to move things forward and when it’s time for a glass of wine.

Before Black Sheep, Jess managed accounts for Adcetera and earned a B.S. in Marketing from Texas A&M University.

A former Creative Director at Pinot’s Palette, she helped scale the national franchise from three to 150+ locations through training staff, cataloguing artwork, coordinating a re-brand and structuring operations.

Bill is always seeing three steps ahead of a creative idea and quietly getting it all down on paper in the form of original, hand-drawn illustrations that fascinate and surprise. Affectionately, we refer to them as Billustrations. Before joining Black Sheep, Bill designed toys for the Manhattan Toy Company that landed at Target. Originally from Wyandotte, Michigan, Bill holds a B.F.A. from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design and believes a bike ride in 20 degree weather is far superior to a beach day in the summer. 

Our flock is a little different. We are world shifters, game changers and brand strategy rebels WITH a cause.
