History: Tiburon Design, Inc.

Founded in 1999, Tiburon Design, Inc. is a full-service advertising, marketing and communications agency headquartered in Torrance, CA. Having worked in the advertising and creative design field since 1986, President and CEO Gary Evans recognized a gap in the marketplace. The product and service offerings of small and medium-sized advertising agencies did not meet the criteria of being a holistic provider of creative and strategic marketing services. Realizing that he could build a creative agency that supplied its clients with the critical elements of dynamic design standards, effective marketing and communications strategies and unprecedented customer service, Mr. Evans launched Tiburon Design.

Building on his leadership experience in both artistic direction and advertising management, Mr. Evans has grown Tiburon Design from a small agency to a thriving creative business that teams graphic designers, strategic consultants and advertising specialists together to form the full-service proposition he envisioned for his clients. The Tiburon Design approach is also unique - each client relationship is a strategic marketing partnership. The cornerstone of the Tiburon Design client offering is the belief that collaborative creative and strategic efforts define success.

Founder: Gary Evans

It was while studying advertising at Lycoming College in Pennsylvania, that Gary Evans discovered his lifešs professional passion: channeling creative expression to deliver a strategic impact in diverse business environments. Originally from Morrisville, PA, Gary left Pennsylvania after his rewarding experience at Lycoming College. Settling in Southern California after playing six years of professional baseball in the Milwaukee Brewers' farm system, Gary began his career in advertising at a small creative agency and soon realized he had found his calling. Desiring greater exposure to critical business decision-making, Gary joined the creative division of the marketing department of a major publications group.

Achieving success on both the analytical and creative sides of the business landscape, Gary left the publications company after eleven years. He served as Art Director for the last five years of his tenure. Having achieved his goal of understanding the analytical drivers of business management and how creative strategies impact these decisions, Gary proceeded to establish Tiburon Design. Now in business since 1999, Gary has grown Tiburon Design from a start up creative agency, into a thriving team of advertising specialists, graphic designers and strategic consultants.
