"Working with Pete and Juan Carlos is one of those rare professional experiences where the process is as satisfying as the results. The communication is easy and honest. No BS, no posturing. They make the work better, and frankly, make the days more fun. I'd work with them again in a heartbeat."

"Pete and Juan Carlos together form a creative multiverse: they do copy, vibes,  design, music, production methodology and culture in equal and hefty measure. I got to benefit from their knowledge but, more importantly, their leadership which is real, human and kind.”

“In my collaboration with Pete as our Creative Head at the in-house agency at the  LEGO Group, I witnessed him enabling our creative team to create more business value  by understanding and partnering closely with our marketing partners building trust with  them. In his leadership, I was given opportunities to play to my strengths when I showed  readiness for it. My curiosity, ambition and work were met with honest feedback and  personal encouragement from him.”

“Pete is one of the best creative leaders that I’ve ever worked with, hands down. He is  so generous with his knowledge and experience, and his mentorship and guidance  helped me develop my own leadership abilities. He is absolutely honest with feedback  and critiques, but in such a way that I would always come away from feedback  dialogues feeling invigorated, like my team and I were capable of conquering any  problem. I always felt that Pete had my back in any work situation, and that my views  were not just heard, but actually listened to and treated with respect.”

“Collaborating with Pete was both inspiring and impactful. His strong and authentic  communication and leadership, combined with genuine engagement and personal  commitment, made a real difference. Pete made change happen with people, not to them, creating trust and a sense of inclusion. That commitment and openness shaped a  transformation that felt meaningful and built confidence at all levels in the organization.”

“L+R was founded on one simple belief: Strong brands aren’t built by process alone, but by people working together with purpose. Partnering with Juan Carlos and Pete at both Saatchi and Nickelodeon, this belief has never wavered. They help shape internal culture so creative teams can shift culture itself.”

“I worked with Pete and Juan Carlos early in my career and learned so many lessons that I still follow from the example they set at Nickelodeon. I watched them take a ragtag group of creatives and marketing folks with differing backgrounds and goals, at all  stages of their career journey, and build a team with a cohesive vision, a raised bar of quality, and a shared set of values. With a unique style of leadership, they created a  department that felt like a community based in joy, trust, and a lot of heart, which is no small task inside the halls of a massive corporation. The more stops I make in the world of advertising, the more I appreciate how good we had it and the more I respect what they were able to pull off.” 

“Working with Pete and Juan Carlos at Nickelodeon was one of those rare partnerships where trust comes lightning fast. They both communicate early and clearly, keep the process moving, and always make sure you’re aligned … even when the work is moving at speed. Great humans, great instincts, great follow-through.”

"I’ve seen them grow with intention and integrity. They lead with respect, listen deeply,  and build partnerships that feel honest, generous, and effective.”

“More than anything, Pete and Juan Carlos know intimately what it means to be a great  creative and in turn what it means to deliver great creative to drive business outcomes.  And that is not easy. They understand what creative requires from process and ways of  working to rich collaboration and business transparency. The thing I have learned from  

them is how you set up your creative team for success by making sure within the  organization they are not treated as a service or capability and “value-added” but rather  as essential to the efficacy of the business and a valuable part of the whole ecosystem.  Oh, and they do it with a high level of craft, kindness, and empathy."

“Working with these guys [at the LEGO Group] felt like creative culture at full speed:  aligned leadership, clear priorities, and trust as the default—plus a genuinely fun ride.”

"I’ve seen them grow with intention and integrity. They lead with respect, listen deeply,  and build partnerships that feel honest, generous, and effective.”

"Pete and Juan are a rare combination of creativity, heart, and leadership.They bring energy, warmth, and clarity to every project — breaking down barriers, sparking great ideas, and delivering thoughtful, future-focused creative solutions.”
