Great minds think alike.

THE AGENCY

We are Parallel. Our name represents our belief that success is a direct result of people and ideas being in alignment. Our team, our clients, our vendors, all working in sync alongside each other.

the team

Our core philosophy and approach to work is that when it comes to solving anything, 1+1=11. When two or more people work together, the result is far greater than if one had done it alone. The number eleven has become synonymous with the idea of collaboration and is subtly and serendipitously integrated within the name Parallel.

Core Values

We are humans being, not humans doing. Our culture tends to emphasize productivity, industriousness, and output. As a result, constantly doing helps many of us feel accomplished. And as long as we’re accomplishing something, we have value. But there is so much more. We believe the best comes from within and by paying attention to who we are being.

BE STILL

Listen. Be totally present and open to new ideas, respecting thoughts of those around you. Practice composure and patience. Quieting your mind creates a space that allows solutions to reveal themselves.

BE BRILLIANT

Be the person who lights the way. Inspires others. Postivity, curiosity and confidence is contagious, so be the very best version of yourself and push others to do the same.

BE COLLABORATIVE

The name Parallel was born of the idea that 1+1=11. We celebrate and encourage one another, working together and aligning ideas to form stronger solutions.

BE STELLAR

We persistently hold our work to the highest standard, both in service and creativity. We are a growth-minded team pushing for better solutions and incredible work, with a willingness to do whatever it takes.

BE SILLY

We are very serious about what we do but that does not mean it must always be done in a serious manner. Have fun. It will never feel like work unless you’d truly rather be doing something else. Allow the child in you to come out and play.
