Greg McLoughlin is prone making things up. He’ll tell you he’s 6ft tall, (he’s quite short). He’ll say he’s fluent in many languages, (just about one max). Luckily for him, making things up turned out to be a viable career path. Greg is the Creative Director at The Mix Dublin, the global in-house agency and production company for Irish Distillers Pernod Ricard. He’s now on a mission to help The Mix team create the very best work of their lives for iconic Irish Whiskey brands like - Jameson, Midleton Very Rare and Method and Madness and many more.
