Danyel Newcom
Principal
Danyel may be our Principal, but she wears so many other hats you’d be hard pressed to define her role on a business card. She ensures the success of the entire agency, in part by acting as the crux of the Creative Department. She also carries out the modest task of making the strategic and cultural decisions that propel the agency forward.
Background
Danyel’s client-focused, entrepreneurial spirit has spanned almost twenty years. She started working on the client-side at AOR 10 years ago, and now focuses on innovation and business strategy. She studied Design at the University of Evansville and Harlaxton College in Grantham, England, as well as Interior Design at the Colorado Institute of Art.

Favorite Things
High country off-roading on anything with a motor and 2+ wheels, traveling to distant lands, revamping anything from commercial buildings to vintage campers, cuddling and wrestling with her two dogs and two teenagers, staying in her remote cabin with her family, interesting conversations over good food and fine cocktails
