Benjamin Neal Conaghan is a KCMO-based Award Winning Creative Director.

As that big headers says, I'm a Creative Director based in Kansas City. My journey began at the American Academy of Art in Chicago, where I earned a BFA in Illustration with a focus on Art Direction. After college, I moved to Kalamazoo, MI, to work as an art director for Kellogg’s snack brands like Pringles and Nutri-grain at VML.

I then returned to Chicago, helping grow Kellogg's creative department from a small team to a thriving office. During my years there, I worked with major brands such as Tyson, Wells, Frosted Flakes, Froot Loops, and Rice Krispies, and won the Panama Tourism account, leading to a memorable production experience.

After four dancing around Lake Michigan, I relocated to VML’s headquarters in Kansas City to work on Wendy’s account. Now, I serve as one of Wendy's creative directors, focusing on 360 innovative campaigns with an emphasis around TV and Big thinking. Outside of work, I enjoy screen printing posters and smoking brisket.
