Was this unprecedented year full of pivots and adapting to the new normal? Of course, but we hate buzz words and will refrain from them moving forward if you follow along.
2020 Kicked Off
From our 2019 vantage point, the upcoming year held a lot of promise and we came into it prepared to do our best work. We put love into our new digs, designed to optimize our capacity to customize digital experiences, and then had to shift to our home offices in March. We’re extremely fortunate to have clients that enabled us to continue working in a time where a strong digital presence is crucial. Niall has a little more to share with you on all of this.
The Heart of DG Keeps Pumping
Our team is passionate, filled with individuals who get to do the work they love. This year we learned a lot, and also continued to give our client’s projects the energy and creativity we’re accustomed to providing.

A short list of the many tools we use to edit, organize and communicate.
In 2020 we’ve made deep carves into niches like private equity and higher ed, while also thriving in unrelated industries with their own unique requirements and great stories to tell.
Niall – Founder
A compelling story that we can help shape is the juice that gets us creating the right form and functionality to serve client’s goals. This year we elevated the digital footprints of several private equity brands, helped a prestigious university reach a new generation of innovators, and worked with a nearly century old iron business to keep their identity vibrant.
