Chip Gross
Atlanta is a city known for many things: the food, the music, the culture. The traffic! But I don\u2019t know if Atlanta\u2019s really ever been seen as a design city like one would see New York or Chicago. That reputation is rapidly changing though, and that\u2019s thanks to Chip Gross. Chip is the managing director for Work & Co\u2019s newest office in Atlanta, and with over 20 years of experience under his belt, he\u2019s helping the city be recognized as a destination for design talent.\n\nWe started off talking about his new position, including how it differs from his past roles, as well as the challenges of setting up a new office during a pandemic. Chip also spoke about growing up throughout New England and attending UPenn, starting his career in Chicago, and then moving to Atlanta for grad school. We also talked about Chip\u2019s experiences at IBM, iXL, Brighthouse, and AKQA, and how those prepared him for what he\u2019s doing now. Chip has put in the work and now it\u2019s time for him to take center stage!
