Harvey Marco joins Gallegos United as Chief Creative Officer and Co-President

Gallegos United, the independent Huntington Beach-based agency that primarily focuses on serving the U.S. Hispanic market, hired industry veteran Harvey Marco to serve as its new Chief Creative Officer and Co-President.Marco, who formerly led WPP’s dedicated Mazda unit Garage Team Mazda, will take over for Dave Damman, who is resigning from the agency to “focus on the needs of his life outside of work” and moving back to Minnesota to be with his family. The new executive begins on July 1, just over five months after founder and CEO John Gallegos rebranded his group as United Collective and added a new digital agency and PR firm to the family.“We’re certainly sad to see Dave go, but we’re not naïve to the fact that there is more to life than what happens within the agency’s four walls” added Gallegos. “Dave has been an agent of change at Gallegos United; and it is with a tremendous amount of gratitude and respect that we say goodbye to Dave.”
