Big enough to deliver, small enough to care!

“Don’t believe for a minute that you can’t” – Me, every day.

I wish I could tell you I completed my bachelor’s degree or MBA after graduating high school. Actually, I wish I could tell you that I graduated high school.

Truth is:

In 1990, I dropped out of high school.

In 1995, I began my first “real” job at Kukic Advertising – base pay $0 per week (I may have been slightly under paid).

Three months later I earned the right to be paid $200 per week (thank goodness because I was running out of couches to crash on).

In 1999, I became Vice President of Kukic Advertising – a boutique automotive agency (wow).

Since then: 136 satisfied clients (Including CBS4), the brightest and hardest working team and a super cool office we call home.

I’ve worn many hats throughout this awesome journey and my experiences have taught me that my professional value comes down to this:

– I problem solve like it’s nobody’s business.
– I practice the lost art of listening.
– I K.I.S.S.
– I surround myself with people better than me.
– I think BIG.
– I don’t get startled.
– I water my own lawn.
– I have a ton of passion.
– I have even more commitment.

Valued relationships come from a connection. If you would like to get to know more about our group shoot me an email: tony@kukicadvertising.com.

Specialties: Finding solutions, developing teams, optimizing processes, goal orientation, leadership, creative thinking.

Ad girl and artist, Tammy Kukic is a sunshine eating, adventure seeking, beach bumming, wine drinking, pug loving Art Director at Kukic Advertising. Tammy’s path to the creative world began at an early age. With the direction of her dad, she showed off her skills in the first grade talent show drawing Charlie Brown in under a minute, thus introducing her to the concept of creating under pressure and meeting deadlines. She continued honing her craft at Loyola University New Orleans.

Receiving a degree in Advertising, Tammy started working for her father’s ad agency after graduation.  It was always her intention to take over the family business.  In 1999, after the passing of her father Tom, she and her best friend Tony Gambirazio took the helm and they have never looked back. Taking the knowledge Tom Kukic had instilled in them, they have taken Kukic Advertising to new heights.

Having graduated with a Business degree from FIU in 2008, Cesar then spent 4 years out in the field as an Advertising Consultant. After meeting with over 1,000 business owners, Cesar developed a keen eye for what makes for an effective well-balanced marketing campaign that takes into consideration the unique virtues and characteristics of an individual business. Cesar couldn’t help but notice that when it came to the online portion of a marketing campaign, most businesses lacked a proper web-presence with a strategy that generates consistent results.

In 2012, Cesar sought out the mentorship, courses, and conferences that would enable him to provide businesses with a turn-key system that taps into the abundant sea of leads that the internet has become. As the Director of Digital Marketing here at Kukic Advertising, through in-depth consultations and thorough market research, Cesar designs and oversees the execution of custom ROI-driven digital marketing campaigns. He loves making a difference for local businesses, and can’t wait to contribute to your company!

Andrea showed her love for customer service as a little girl greeting shoppers at her father’s grocery store, Galiano’s in Coral Gables. From a young age, Andrea was consumed by wanderlust. Her love of new places and people prepared her for the many adventures she would encounter on her career path. After graduating from FIU with a degree in Public Relations and International Affairs, Dre went to work at local CPA firm that handled global accounts. She eventually wanted more variety and made her way to Kukic Advertising as the Director of Client Services.

Dre loves problem solving, helping people, and managing projects – the combination suits her well. She has spent the last 4 years here at Kukic Advertising helping past and current clients with any and all requests related to improving, expanding, and marketing their sites or campaigns. Dre uses her superb communication and customer service skills to make sure that everyone is satisfied.

While other girls asked for Barbies and dolls for their birthdays, Rebeca always asked for an array of art materials, coloring books, scrap booking tools and other arts & crafts supplies. In high school, she spent a great amount of time scrapbooking her memories but it was during her time at UCLA that she realized she could transfer that skill to a digital platform. She began to work at her university’s newspaper as an editorial designer, eventually becoming Design Director. Her editorial path continued after graduation when she landed a job as a Features Page Designer for the San Diego Union-Tribune.
In 2015, Rebeca was recruited by Kukic Advertising as the head designer for the CBS4 Magazine and Newspapers. Soon after, she was promoted to Lead Web Designer for Kukic Advertising where she now works with numerous clients on day-to-day tasks, offering creative solutions to ensure their visions and expectations are met.
