Our next chapter begins

It is with great excitement that Keith and I announce that we’re sunsetting Bean Creative so that we can begin our Act Two with new creative adventures.

A tremendous legacy

Growing and running a business has been incredibly rewarding. We began as a side hustle and then a home-based business before growing into a full-fledged studio in the heart of Del Ray, Alexandria. Other than our amazing kids, creating and nurturing Bean Creative as a top DC digital agency has been our proudest accomplishment.

We’ve won the industry’s highest honors (several Webby Awards), been featured in national publications, and worked with an enviable client list that includes everyone from Verizon, PBS, National Geographic, the American Red Cross, Dr. Seuss, HarperCollins Publishers, the Library of Congress, the Smithsonian Institution, and even “Weird” Al Yankovic.

And though we are a small agency, we’ve been mighty – working at Bean has given our staff the skills and portfolio to land jobs at places like Google, Trip Advisor, Publicis Sapient, and Deloitte.

Running a digital firm requires us to embrace change, transformation, and new directions. Similarly, changing careers is a big, scary, audacious move, but one that we are excited to explore after running a business for so long.

Thank you to our staff, clients, partners, friends, and family for your support over the years. As we turn the page on one era, we begin to write new chapters that we plan to make just as rewarding as our time at the helm of Bean Creative.
