Paul Christy, Founder & CEO

Paul is a seasoned freelance programmer who has built his career developing websites and web technology since 1997. After graduating from high school in the early 2000s, Paul started his first web design company, Element 9 Design. As the business grew, Paul realized that he needed more knowledge in design and marketing than just programming. Paul attended College for Creative Studies in Detroit, MI specializing in Advertisement and Graphic Design.

In 2014, Paul founded EGO Creative Marketing, a creative media solution and marketing company. As the company grew, so did the services. Adding everything from Print Marketing to Video production, EGO quickly became the one-stop shop for all your marketing needs.

Today, Paul and the team have grown the company year-over-year and have helped everyone from large corporations, celebrities, and international companies to mom and pop shops and local non-profit organizations.
