Take Me To Your Leaders
When we started HERO, we knew exactly what type of agency we wanted to be: one that fosters relationships, innovation, creativity, and fun. For us, being a HERO means loving what we do, and doing our best possible work every day—even in ways that people don’t notice. It’s about caring for others, being honest in all we do, and leading by example.
Richard Bumgarner • Founder & CEO
Obsession is bad in a roommate. But it's exactly what you want in the guy championing your business. For 25+ years, Richard has been bringing his own brand of gung-ho energy to the healthcare, financial services, B2B, SaaS, and tech space, spearheading award-winning campaigns on behalf of clients like Verizon and Kaiser Permanente. If you can name it, Richard has likely done it with style and panache.
Kim Johnson • EVP & COO
Kim has been developing CRM and data-driven campaigns long before they were industry buzzwords. She earned her sharp-eyed skill set over 20 years of managing campaigns in health care and high-tech, working with clients like Blue Shield and Autodesk. Her ability to strategize and direct campaigns across channels and industries, while keeping her eye on the bigger picture, is matched only by her thirst for adventure.
