Dan Stebbings / Founder, Creative Director

Growing up the son of a 1970’s “adman” and grandson of a 1940’s “print-man”, Dan was exposed early-on to the value of creativity in the marketplace as well as more than his fair-share of corny headlines. Today, with over twenty-five years of industry experience under his belt, Dan follows suit, sharing the responsibility of running Chum with his son, Bram. When Dan is not leading the studio’s creative efforts, he’s often found covered in saw dust with an idea in mind and a tool in hand. He also enjoys spending time with his wife, kids and “the grands” at the family cabin at the foot of the white mountains in NH.
