ALEX GELLERT

Alex is the definition of a paradox. He is a native New Yorker who loves chain restaurants and malls, which is what makes him such a good marketing partner-he can market both luxury and mass from personal experience. He began his career at Barry Blau & Partners and later moved to Scali, McCabe, Sloves before joining M+P. He has been married for 30 years and has three boys, which makes life challenging and fun at the same time. Outside of work and family, his passions include all Francis Ford Coppola movies (Tucker: The Man and His Dream is highly underrated!) and all things Disney. He has not missed his annual visit to Walt Disney World in nearly 40 years, and is currently planning to visit Shanghai Disneyland soon. He tries to live by a motto of Walt Disney’s, who said, “I only hope we don’t lose sight of one thing – that it was all started by a mouse.”
