Robert Gaxiola

Gax is the co-founder of Singapore advertising agency ManghamGaxiola. Before putting his name on the door and becoming an entrepreneur in 2012, he worked under much bigger names. Such as Goodby, Silverstein & Partners, Ogilvy, Bates, Batey Advertising, FCB, DY&R and Disney.

A graduate of the Pasadena Art Center College of Design, the native Californian has been in Singapore for nearly twenty years. His creative work has garnered medals in Cannes, D&AD, The One Show, Effies, Cleos, Ink Awards, and the Creative Circle Awards. His last two awards include two coveted D&AD Yellow Pencils.

ManghamGaxiola was later purchased by the Dentsu Aegis Network and was renamed McGarryBowen. Nowadays Gax is a visiting lecturer at the Chatsworth Media Academy and patiently waiting out his non-compete period before announcing his next amazing venture.
