Brand Marketing and Communications

Purpose-driven and experienced creative leader, insight-based storyteller, social/digital thinker, and problem solver

Hello

My name is Jeremy Carples, a creative and strategic brand storyteller based in Portland, Oregon.

With 15+ years of experience in brand marketing, content strategy, brand communication, and production, I’m an accomplished creative leader with a proven ability to inspire audiences via sharp brand narratives. I firmly believe that storytelling is the primary means for both humanizing brands and building lasting connections and community. When done right, it has the ability to change the world.

Starting with the question of ‘why,’ I thrive on building brand equity through purpose, belief, and a persistent curiosity to challenge the status quo. Working as both a leader and thought partner, I’ve had the opportunity to shape and amplify the voice of some of the world’s most impactful brands. I believe in building teams, managing up, utilizing insights and working cross-functionally for effective brand content. Additionally, I pride myself on truly thinking digital first, creating lasting and engaging campaigns that build trust and advocacy with brand audiences.

Working with a wide body of subjects from celebrities to everyday heroes, I’ve been able to impact culture by championing stories of hope, perseverance, equality, environmentalism, and the power of human potential. In the process, I’ve built relationships bridging traditional company and agency lines, and have been recognized as a member of multiple award-winning teams that have delivered on both revenue growth and brand equity/love.
