Russ Williams

Russ, our ingenious Creative Director, has been with Hothead since early 2006. He brings his veteran expertise to the studio, having over 24 years of trench work in marketing, design, and power branding. He has developed work for several clients including The Home Depot, Raving Brands, and Gordon Biersch. You would think he'd seen it all... well, he's seen a lot.

Prior to his 1990 arrival in Atlanta, Russ graduated from Syracuse University in 1983. He then continued to fine-tune his creative skills via Television and Agency work in Colorado. Over the years Russ has developed a keen sense of humor and humility working both sides of the fence in corporate and consumer brands on local and international levels. Which side of the fence does he like best? You'll have to ask him.

Russ makes it his business to understand the market and how our clients fit into it. He aims to help them in their quest to find perfect answers rather than just settling for good solutions. He lives in Decatur with his wife (a fellow creative design extraordinaire), his 4-year-old twins and their chocolate lab, Melba. When he's not creating "perfect answers" he can be found welding unique metal sculptures.
