DALLAS Two former executives of WPP Group’s J. Walter Thompson have left to launch their own advertising agency called Como Advertising.

Founders of the new Houston shop are Julie Staubo, former partner and account director at JWT in Houston, and Gregg Steward, former senior partner and executive creative director at the agency.

Staubo, who was with Ogilvy & Mather in Houston for 11 years and JWT for three, said starting her own firm would allow her to work in the “incredibly unique market” of Houston without having to deal with the bureaucracy and paperwork of a large company.
