HOLA! After 36 years of dreaming about making a living from football and trying to become a visual artist, life somehow led me into advertising. I worked at Circus Grey, McCann, Fahrenheit DDB — where I met my wife, the mother of my little daughter — Publicis and Tribeca, collaborating with amazing people and brands along the way. That journey led me to win 4 Cannes Lions and several other awards. Recently, I discovered that my last name had been misspelled for years. So now, officially, my last name is Risi. And now, I’m happy to be back at McCann, starting a new chapter with the same passion as always.
