Dustin began his career in Advertising 20 years ago in New York City, representing some of the world’s top international publications and websites.

Selling ad space to leading Finance, Consumer and Fashion brands, then leveraging his international experience, Dustin transitioned from selling Media to Talent and Rights, joining Talent Partners in 2012. 

Within 2 years of taking the position of International Business Development Director, Dustin moved with his young family to London to continue growing the international portfolio and further cultivate his European relationships. This led to the opening of the first non-US headquarters of Talent Partners (later acquired by Extreme Reach). 

In 2020, Dustin took the decision to chase his entrepreneurial dreams and left Extreme Reach to start his own Talent & Rights Management consultancy, DKG & Co and later the same year founded Talent Wire with Jeff Cobb.

Dustin’s trusted reputation in the industry and drive to create better solutions for his clients, was the brainchild for Talent Wire, which is now supporting some of the top brands around the world, creating award-winning content.

When Dustin isn’t supporting the next big, global ad campaign, you’ll find him on the side of the pitch supporting both his boys’ youth football teams in Leigh-on-Sea, on a plane collecting passport stamps, or walking his dog Olly down by the seafront.
