Aaron Grando
Technologist, engineer, creative agency veteran
I’ve spent the last fourteen years at RTO+P, serving as the agency's Technology Director since 2017. We’ve done a lot of great work, pitched a lot of ideas, wrote a lot of code, and launched a lot of websites. I’ve enjoyed working with a huge variety clients, from rag-tag popups to some of the world's biggest brands.
Lately, I’ve been working on applying AI to create novel creative experiences for brands, and applying my deep experience managing brand web presences to the new digital realities.
