Paul Thompson

Associate Media Director

I have two, soon-to-be three sons, a loving wife and an aging springer spaniel. I was born in South Dakota where I’ve lived most of my life with the exception of a few stops when I was young.  One of those stops was in Oregon where my parents taught me how to ski as soon as I could walk.
My first endeavors out of college were in broadcast sales which showed me the power of branding, but I eventually noticed how much fun the Media Buyers were having and decided to make the jump to the agency side. The constant evolution of media and ever-increasing burden of proof for success is what keeps me up at night, but if it were easy, it wouldn’t be so fun.  Which leads me to another hobby of mine, golf.

Did You Know

One of my biggest regrets in life is quitting piano lessons when I was a kid, but I can still play a pretty mean rendition of the Mission: Impossible Theme.
