StrawberryFrog has appointed Steve Scutellaro to General Manager who has been managing director at Deep Focus for the past five years. He will join co-chief creative officer Nick Sonderup, who was appointed CCO this summer. He works with Tyler DeAngelo co-CCO.
Steve Scutellaro met and worked closely with Nick Sonderup at Pereira O’Dell on Mini Cooper, Timberland, FOX Sports and several other brands.
This is the first time StrawberryFrog, which celebrates its 25 year anniversary in 2024 appoints a General Manager.
Scutellaro started his career at Rosetta (later acquired by RazorFish), learning the ins and outs of digital, CRM and data. He then moved to Crispin Porter + Bogusky during its prime where he led a slew of integrated campaigns for Best Buy, including multiple Super Bowl commercials. Next, at Deutsch LA, he led brands like PlayStation, Taco Bell, Target and others. He then moved back to the east coast with Pereira O’Dell’s office in New York, helping them grow over the course of five years.
Since then, he has been running Deep Focus, where he led the agency through an acquisition and consistent growth, reinforcing their social media offering and building a team focused on innovative integrated marketing strategy and communications. During those 5 years, he was overseeing work for brands like HBO, Aruba Tourism, Jägermeister, Bravo Network, and AvisBudget Group.
Also comprising the revamped leadership team will be Nicola Coneally who has been promoted to VP Operations and HR.
