“In this complex media landscape, clients are increasingly looking for partners that can easily make sense of the noise and seamlessly execute a single strategic campaign across multiple platforms. With that need in mind, we are thrilled to add Kevin’s breadth and depth of knowledge to our team roster. Working closely with our creative, strategy and public relations teams, Kevin will help Walrus deliver truly integrated results for our clients,” said Frances Webster, Co-Founder and Chief Operating Officer, Walrus.
Prior to joining Walrus, Porter was a Media Director at Wieden+Kennedy, where he spent ten years leading the New York media department, increasing agency digital billings by nearly US $30 million/£22.8 million and working with clients like ABC Television Network, Equinox, Jordan Brand, Coca-Cola and Disney Pixar.

“I am excited to join the Walrus team and help the agency enhance and expand its media offerings. Media communications campaigns are the most successful when every part of the work process, from planning through measurement, is aligned closely with creative and public relations efforts. I look forward to helping Walrus continue to create integrated campaigns that respect consumers’ time and intellect and drive results for our clients,” said Porter.
