He has delivered results for a spectrum of brands that include Sprite, Fanta, UN Women, IKEA, Honda, Toyota, Ad Council, and Disney.

Mallorie is a 15-year HR veteran who, after a long stint with Aflac in Indiana, moved west for the surf and sunshine—and found a compatible home with Moontide. “I was drawn to the company’s genuine warmth and collaborative mindset,” she says. “What I tell prospective hires comes from my own experience here—that at Moontide you’re a name, not a number. You’re made to feel part of a team. And you never have to worry about hitting a ceiling.” Mallorie feels right at home in the agency’s creative environment—she worked her way through university as a cosmetologist, and she’s still handy with the tools of that trade. Outside the office, look for her in the South Bay surf, volunteering for the Humane Society, or walking Ginger, her neatly styled labradoodle.
