Teddy Stoecklein

Hi. I'm Teddy Stoecklein, founder of Candy Side Creative. I have spent over twenty-five years as a Creative Lead in advertising. I do lots of advertisey things — write, direct, design, edit, manage, harvest nuggets — you know, advertising. I spent the first years of my career in NYC, at BBDO and McCann. In 2008, I moved to Maine to raise chitlins and join the VIA Agency — leading the Creative Department — twice winning the coveted AdAge Small Agency of the Year Award (2012 and 2019). I'm also the founder of The Cowboy Yoyo, and I've written a book of Pirate Jokes, available on Amazon for just $9.99, if that's your thing.
