My name is Karl Gomes

When I am not busy working or traveling on client business, you can catch me hanging out at a nearby coffee shop, lounge or a movie theatre with friends or networking with potential business associates. I very recently picked up a Sony DSC H5 and do not have the heart to stop clicking.

I am currently working as National Creative Director at Tribal DDB India
I started at the age of 16 as lab instructor for computer art where I mastered the right tools and technology for the trade. Besides the regular fun in college I also consulted with various traditional advertising houses to provide art and design solutions for various brands. A passion for new technologies helped me adapt the web and I collaborated with agencies, clients, brand strategists, art directors, writers, designers, planners, and technologists to create interactive experiences. The last 3 years at Tribal DDB India has made me a believer of relevant, original and impacting creative in the online space. Tiny screens are spinning big ideas and what was once shrugged off as geek thing has entered the mainstream of advertising culture. Now as the National Creative Director at Tribal DDB India, my primary objective is to create compelling brand experiences in and around the digital medium. I have worked on very exciting brands such as British Telecom, Times Group, MTV India, Honda, Citibank, Air India, Reliance ADA Group, TimesJobs.com and delivered intelligent strategic thinking and excellent creative work.
