Overview

Company Summary

A brand innovation company. Solutions that are deceptively simple, calculatedly bold and extraordinarily effective. Zero ego or pretense. Independent and outspoken, 20+ years running. A place where empathy has a home, not a forwarding address. People who defy categorization. A culture that believes in challenging everything about everything. And pound for pound, we still care way more than is cool. We grow brands through a combination of Brand Performance (increasing penetration and value creation), Brand Platforms (scalable ideas across degrees of audacity) and Brand Recognition (ensuring brands are easily noticed and remembered).

Sandi Harari
Chief Creative Officer
A big agency refugee with 20+ years in entertainment + fashion, I’ve been building the agency of my dreams at Barker for (gulp) 21 years! I’m a growth junkie by nature and am driven by my curiosity for people, business, and ideas. I love what I do and who I get to do it with, and I hope that it shows.

Born and bred in Brooklyn, I bring a bit of that Brooklyn candor into the spaces I am in. I’ve fostered an atypical agency structure at Barker—one where creatives regularly bleed outside their titles and work across different brands in ways that mix it up, keeping our people and work fresh. I’m unwavering in who I look for to join the team: people who don’t stop raising the bar for themselves, self starters who are entrepreneurial, hungry for just about everything, and love business.

I am also passionate about being part of the change happening right now in the industry, and regularly speak up about women in the workforce as well as female leadership. As one of the few female creative executives in this space, I am fiercely committed to changing that for the future.

Kim Tracey
Chief Client Officer
As a founding member of the Barker team, over the past 21 years I’ve had the privilege to help shape our account services with my belief in transparency, kindness, curiosity, and grit. Those were values instilled in me in my Northern Maine upbringing and have served me well through my education at Dickinson College (BA, English & Theater) to today. I believe in doing whatever it takes to get a job done, and I live for the moments when that requires a bit of quick, out-of-the-box thinking.

My background in production fueled my passion for Barker’s earliest entertainment clients, and my love of storytelling and human connection kept me in the ad game. I believe strongly in a liberal arts approach to life—the interconnectivity of ideas and the power of simply learning how to learn. This is a business that demands constant learning—of ever-changing landscapes, shifting values and behaviors, and emerging technologies. I can’t imagine a better place
to be.

Jason Spies
Chief Growth Officer
I’ve spent my entire advertising career in a business development role with a focus on finding new opportunities and generating new revenue. I know how to win new business without spending tons of money and without disturbing current client work.

I’ve generated over $100MM in agency fee revenue through selling in growth strategies and creative solutions to c-suite at companies like freshpet, WNBA, Nickelodeon, Nestle (Dog Chow, Powerbar, Buitoni), Dyla Brands (Stur, Happy Viking), Audible, Post Foods, KEDS, Hanes, Champion, Jockey, Lego, Sunsweet Growers, Totes Isotoner, Bausch & Lomb (Lumify, Soothe, Renu,Biotrue, Xifaxan), Nine West, Shiseido, Estee Lauder, Holy Name Medical Center, Fujifilm (Instax), Baxter International and the country of Albania, to name a few.

Driven by business objectives. Inspired by fertile insights, creativity, and untapped potential. Idea-led and executionally minded. Positive and resilient, entrepreneurial, tenacious, and brave. Knows when to collaborate on decisions and when to take the individual lead. Unflapped by tight timelines and fast-paced environments, able to juggle multiple projects and integrate fellow executives into the process along key milestones. Outstanding communication and storytelling skills, able to present content in a compelling manner across levels.

Deven Madray
Chief Financial Officer
I’m a dedicated Finance and Accounting professional with over 25 years of management experience in financial reporting, FP&A, operations, and compliance. In addition to optimizing financial operations to drive revenue and profitability, I focus on bringing financial rigor and operational excellence to Barker—a key metric to our success and our lifeblood as an independent agency.

Over the course of my career, I’ve supported agencies of all sizes, from those within large-scale holding companies like Omnicom and IPG to indies like Barker. Coupled with an MBA in Accounting and Economics from Maryville University, it’s that breadth of experience that’s allowed me to build smart, healthy, and sustainable best practices for the agency.
As Barker evolves, I’m passionate about efficient business operations, thoughtful process improvements, and nurturing the financial strength to best support our clients and staff.
