RANDALL KIRSCH

Randall's savvy combination of creative and analytical skill has made him much in demand since he joined Jackson Spalding in 2002. He is a member of our management team and contributes significantly to the firm's growth and long-range planning.

His agency experience runs the gamut from financial consulting projects to consumer promotions and business-to-business strategy. He led the Orkin Commercial Services account for five years, during which time the scope of work grew four-fold and the marketing communications work earned multiple national industry awards for his 7-member team.

He led the brand resurgence for The Gretsch Company, an iconic name among serious musicians, during their 18-month 125^th anniversary campaign in 2007-2008. This work, which included a robust MySpace promotion and an online band competition among nearly 900 bands from seven countries, earned Jackson Spalding national industry recognition as a finalist for a 2008 Gold SABRE award.

Prior to joining our firm, he was the business manager for Capital Area Preservation (CAP), a non-profit historic-preservation organization in Raleigh, N.C. While in the Tarheel State, he spent his weekends touring the East Coast as a singer-songwriter for the North Carolina-based rock band, Drifting Through.

Randall graduated magna cum laude from Wake Forest University's Calloway School of Business and is a member of the Phi Beta Kappa National Honor Society. When he is not at work or playing guitar at local pubs, he enjoys volunteering as Board Chair for the Atlanta Children's Shelter. He is a graduate of the 2009 class of Leadership Atlanta, and serves on the Board of Trustees for the North Atlanta High School Foundation, helping his alma mater earn a best-in-class reputation. He lives in Decatur with his wife Amy, son Miles and daughter Callie. One of his most memorable moments? Opening for Bob Weir of The Grateful Dead.
