Just over a year after leaving Ogilvy, Gavin Becker has resurfaced at a rather familiar operation: Twitter, where he is now serving as a brand strategist. Becker, aka @grokstar, spent two-plus years at O&M’s New York hub, serving as senior partner, executive director, digital innovation & strategy before splitting to start up his own social network called Bondsy, which he once described as a “personal project to build the best way to sell used goods before going to Craigslist or eBay” (he continues to serve as an advisor).
During his career, Becker has worked on the management and biz dev side at the likes of AKQA New York, Wolff Olins, Martin Agency and what is now RAPP.
