Our Team
Founded by Tommy Richards and Sandra Castro, 1797 Creative is a house united.
Here you won’t have to choose between a strong creative team or a great media team, sacrificing quality and strength in the other half of your agency.

Sandra Castro
CEO/Media Director
Sandra would love to learn to sew. She tried once. It didn’t go well, but she’s no quitter! Maybe she’ll make outfits for Jennifer’s dogs!
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
Philippians 4:13

Tommy Richards
President/Creative Director
Tommy admires honesty and humility in his circle of friends. He’s also well down the path of being an oenophile, so you can count on him to bring a bottle he didn’t choose by the graphics on the label.
Simplicity and repose are the qualities that measure the true value of any work of art.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Our Founders' Legacy

Julie Graham
Writer
Julie’s favorite indulgence is cross-stitching under a blanket and a pile of dogs during a thunderstorm. It’s her Nerdvana. Her daughter is a ninja (a combat martial arts black belt) and small enough to pack in Jacqueline’s suitcase.
