Patrick Conlon

Patrick Conlon is a freelance Creative Director and writer. Over the years, he’s made stuff for the NFL, Wyndham, Google, Amazon, Ocean Spray, Gillette, Bose, Kroger, and a bunch of others. Most recently, he helped create the brand platform “Where There’s A Wyndham, There’s A Way,” sent people on some European-ish road trips, and ruined the holidays with cranky, cran-stealing Bryan Cranston.

His work has been recognized by Cannes Lions, D&AD, The One Show, Clios and the Andy Awards, featured by Forbes, Business Insider, Adweek and Contagious, and even made its way onto Saturday Night Live. “Super Bowl Babies” was voted the #3 best Super Bowl commercial of all time by CBS behind Apple's '1984' and one of those Clydesdale puppy commercials.
