Aldo Quevedo
If one trait distinguishes Aldo, it’s his passion for great ideas that are relevant and memorable.
Having worked in advertising for over two decades, Aldo brings a depth of experience in connecting people with brands. Yet he still gets excited about every new assignment as if it were his first. He believes the best work comes from a constant dedication to solving clients’ challenges. And on any given day, Aldo can be heard focusing and inspiring his team to excel on every project.
Raised by a strong, independent single mother, Aldo learned the value of outstanding leadership at an early age. Today, he blazes trails wherever he goes, whether in his role as a father, CEO at BeautifulBeast, board chairman or founding member of Círculo Creativo.
In fact, Aldo was the first Mexican inductee into the American Advertising Federation’s Hall of Achievement® and the first Mexican to win a Cannes Lion and the Grand Award at the New York Festivals.
Currently, Aldo serves on the advisory board of Bachman Lake Together, a non-profit in Dallas dedicated to thoroughly preparing children for kindergarten, the advisory board of the Radio Mercury Awards, the AAF Hall of Achievement selection board, and a Review Panelist for the Cultural Programs Division of the Office of Arts and Culture for the city of Dallas.
A native of Cuernavaca, Mexico, Aldo speaks Spanish, English, and some Portuguese. But his true fluency lies in translating complex marketing challenges into effective, award-winning omnicultural work.
Aldo still drives as if he were in Mexico City, both professionally and in his car.
