Jesús “Chui” Díaz

VP Creative Director, Chicago, IL

I’m a bilingual CD / AD with experience in major U.S. markets like Los Angeles and Chicago. Having worked at top agencies such as BBDO, McCANN, and Disney's in-house Yellow Shoes. I bring a blend of strategic thinking, creative expertise, and cultural insight to every project.

I thrive on crafting compelling, insight-driven campaigns that resonate across multiple channels, having led award-winning creative work for some of the world’s most recognized brands.

My passion for storytelling, problem-solving, and pushing the boundaries of creative execution drives my approach to each project. As a hands-on leader I love collaborating with teams to develop breakthrough ideas while fostering talent and innovation.
