chickenmonkeydog is a collaborative and creative outlet for two brothers separated by a large ocean. Both brothers work in the creative consultancy industries. Liam, the older wiser one, lives in England and runs his own graphic design practice. Conall, the young, dashing and devilishly clever brother, calls Chicago home and spends his business day as a business technology consultant.
More about Conall
Conall has the uneasy feeling that he is living vicariously through himself.
He is a left-handed resident of Chicago, though he constantly departs from there on trips around the world to satisfy his passion for exploring. Conall has visited 28 countries across 4 continents and has a personal goal of visiting at least 100 countries in his lifetime.
A soccer fan, he once played at around 10,000 feet above sea-level, along the Inca Trail on the way up to Machi Picchu, Peru. Conall loves contemplating and playing with well designed products and is passionate about his black 1975 convertible Corvette. His retirement plan includes owning and operating a shop that sells only bacon, in pursuit of making the tastiest bacon possible.
More about Liam
A communications designer with print and web experience developed over two continents, Liam likes to think he is cooler than he really is. Liam runs a small, UK-based, communications design consultancy called lbdesign, where he is gaining a reputation for randomly breaking out in song during telephone conferences with clients. A reluctant customer of BT Broadband services, Liam’s catchphrase when working on difficult projects is ‘Go, go, Gadget computer!’
When not working on client projects, or making cynical jokes about the state of the political systems in the US and the UK, Liam enjoys supporting Arsenal, drinking quality ales and stouts in English pubs and spending family time with his wife and two children. And lastly, Liam also writes about print design, web design and pubs and beer at liamdempsey.com. He occasionally writes at www.thegovernancepartnership.com, where he is an associate of The Governance Partnership.
