About me
Hi!
I'm Leo Chiesi, a Chilean creative with over 18 years of experience in the industry. I currently lead as Chief Creative Officer at McCANN Worldgroup Chile and Graphene by IPG, LATAM Airlines' bespoke agency.
Throughout my career, I've had the chance to work with incredible global brands like LATAM Airlines, Nestlé, Santander, and NotCo—and been lucky to see that work recognized at festivals like Cannes Lions, The One Show, LIA, Clios, El Ojo de Iberoamérica, and Effie LATAM. In 2023, I was honored with a Gold Lion, a Grand LIA, and named Creative Director of the Year by El Ojo de Iberoamérica.
Along the way, I've also contributed as a juror at Cannes Lions, The One Show, and LIA, helping celebrate the ideas that move our industry forward.
As a creative leader, what I value most is the environment we build to create ideas. I've always believed that great work starts with a great workplace. One where people feel safe, valued, and inspired. Because if the place isn't good, the work won't be good either. Culture drives creativity, and I've made it my priority to nourish both.
