“I had the pleasure of working with Michelle at Caribou for +3 yrs. Michelle is highly organized, passionate about branding, thrives working with external creative/strategic agencies on end to end solutions and in many ways was the single point of truth that held the Caribou brand team together and made sure everyone was in sync and moving in a unified direction. Michelle’s a great mix of strategy and execution, she always leads with what’s best for the brand and works to deliver creative results that deliver on brand strategy and higher level business goals. She is a strong communicator, writer and has a unique ability to lead creative campaigns from inception (briefs) all the way to execution (final product) across: in store pop, digital, paid media and activations. Her super power is she makes it all look easy (we all know that couldn’t be further from the truth). ”

Ad Week
“The medical community knew Gillette well, but the general public was not as familiar with the services Gillette provides,” explained Michelle Chester, senior brand strategist at Periscope. “They didn’t realize that for kids facing certain conditions — epilepsy or cerebral palsy, for example — Gillette is a better choice than other children’s hospitals.”
