Larry Kleehammer
[Co-owner/Director of Client Services]
Larry Kleehammer, Co-Owner and Director of Client Services at Antithesis, started as an intern at internationally-renowned Saatchi and Saatchi and worked his way up to Worldwide Account Director. How do you follow that act? By becoming partner in an agency that’s committed to reinventing the way advertising and marketing work. Larry’s experience with huge and small clients—and his tenacious “nothing is impossible” attitude—serves our clients well. Sure, Larry’s as pleasant a guy as you’ll ever find. But at the end of the day, he’s going to make sure remarkable things happen for you.
Kent Joshpe
[Co-owner/Creative Director]
Kent Joshpe is Co-Owner and Creative Director of Antithesis.Meet Kent, and you’ll know that he was made for this position. The perfect combination of visual thinker, hard worker and bottomless pit of ideas, Kent’s life is like one continuous brainstorming session. He lives to come up with ideas that make things better—whether its your next great ad, or a better way to arrange your conference room furniture. But there’s one big surprise you’ll get from this award-winning, 25-year veteran: He really, really cares about his clients. He just can’t help it.
Josh Egerton
[Senior Art Director]
Josh Egerton is Senior Art Director at Antithesis. We see him as a strange amalgamation of Larry’s good nature and Kent’s drive to create. Though no one’s ever witnessed Josh lose his temper or raise his voice, he designs with the very best of them, calling into question the whole “Prima Donna Theory” of advertising art directors. Josh has spent the last ten years working on accounts ranging from automotive, to professional sports teams to fiber optics. Yes, it’s disconcerting that someone can be both so talented and so nice. Truthfully, we’re still getting used to it ourselves.
Jim Lahue
[Copywriter]
Jim Lahue is our writer. And he’s the antithesis of the advertising copywriter who’d rather be penning the great American novel. His primary joy is using advertising to elegantly solve client problems. He’s an expert at making complex subjects simple and at finding the human insights that can make any topic interesting. Jim believes that if you can make a person laugh, pause, or think, you can do great things—for your market share, certainly. And just maybe, for the world.
Angela Snook
[Assistant Account Executive]
A maven of organization, Angela has a flare for keeping projects on track while keeping everyone—both clients and agency folk—delighted. Angela’s kind to a fault. But don’t let her approachability fool you: the gears of analysis are always turning, helping her make consistently keen decisions in the fast-paced arena of advertising. Angela loves dancing, fashion—and NCAA basketball. Just what we should have expected, perhaps, from someone with such a perfect combination of talents for advertising and marketing.
Michelle Roberts
[Junior Art Director]
It’s one of the greatest truths about designers: everything you love doing impacts everything you create. In Michelle Roberts case, a vast array of interests enable her to create stunning and innovative solutions for our clients. For starters, Michelle enjoys playing guitar, restoring vintage home decor, illustrating and antiquing. And how exactly does that influence her design? All we can say is, “Beautifully.” An intuitive thinker, an artistic problem-solver —and an extremely genuine person—Michelle is simply the perfect fit for an agency that that refuses to simply fit in.
