Oracle Marketing Consulting: Special Issue 83
 

Like a warm hug on
a snowy day...
only funny looking

Ro Ansano

Sr. Art Director, Creative Services

Best gift: My oldest daughter’s first
snowboard, given to me from her
Godfather. I pulled her around the house
with it and, later on, her sister as well.

Holiday tradition: Playing board games
and Mahjong with the family until we start
to fall asleep waiting for our turn.

 
 
Liz Thomas
Sr. Art Director, Creative Services

Worst gift: Desk lamp and white tube socks—I was 11.

Holiday tradition: On New Year’s Day, my family has a build-your-own-pizza party. My mom makes the dough from scratch and there are like 20 different toppings.

 
Katie Anderson
Senior Designer

Best gift: I got a Kindle in 2013 and I still use it every day!

Holiday tradition: This year, my mom’s side is doing a handmade gift exchange. There will be pottery, crocheted items, smoked nuts/meats, and definitely some wild cards from the not-so-outwardly-creative relatives.

 
Chad S. White
Head of Research

Best childhood gift: Omega Supreme Transformer.

Holiday tradition: We celebrate when everyone can get together—whether that’s a week early, New Year's, or even once on MLK Jr. weekend.

 
Kelly Moran
Sr. Art Director for Copy,
Creative Services

Best childhood gift: A red Razor scooter.

Holiday tradition: Making up new lore about The Christmas Mushroom.

 
Maxwell Mlynski
Sr. Copywriter, Creative Services

Best gift: My first white Christmas. I grew up in Australia so I didn’t see snow until I was about 9! I’ll never forget the first cozy, Christmas morning with snow falling.

Holiday tradition: We used to leave a beer out for “Santa” instead of milk and there would be a few sips gone the next morning. Now that I think about it...what a waste!

 
Kathryn Alva
Associate Creative Director

Holiday tradition: My mom finds and wraps up relics from our childhood. Last year, I got my Caboodles box back (Troll Doll earrings and all)!

Worst gift: One year my niece gave everyone pinkeye.

 
Meghan Flynn
Designer, Creative Services

Worst gift I’ve given: In middle school I sewed PJs for my brother and dad, however, I mixed up the measurements and the pants turned out so big they could each fit into a single pajama leg

Best gift: Sewing machine (I was a Project Runway fanatic).
