Muddy Dog Creative is not a traditional communications agency. In fact, we’re not an agency at all. Right now, we’re just a couple of lifelong friends dedicated to providing our clients with professional, strategic communication and marketing programs. With an eye toward growth, we are setting out to chart our own course and provide a new breed of creative.

Scott and Carrie first met in junior high. They remained friends through high school (Beavercreek – Go Beavers!), college (Miami University – Love & Honor!), and beyond. After twenty years of honing our skills in the field, we are ready (and more than able) to provide high-quality, impactful strategic communication and marketing programs for a variety of interests and industries.

Together with our furry friends and faithful families, we’re Muddy Dog Creative – A Brand’s Best Friend.

So, who is the man behind the mud? I’m Scott Kayser, a dog-lover with over two decades of political, nonprofit, and corporate strategic communications experience. I am passionate about crafting compelling communication pieces that grow your brand, build your reputation, and spur your audiences to action.

I have designed and deployed strategic communication programs for politicians, elected officials, nonprofit organizations, and businesses of all sizes. I strive to understand what motivates the target audience and speak specifically to those issues, connecting you with your audience in a way that grows your brand and meets your objectives.

Passionate about active and engaged citizenship, Scott takes part in a variety of civic organizations. Whether through his work with Muddy Dog Creative or his volunteer efforts beyond, he is committed to leaving the community better than he found it.

Scott lives in Sugarcreek with his wife, Kristen, an education superhero. They have two sons and one on the way. Everyone is kept in line by our loveable but derpy Great Pyrenees mix, Duke.
