About Us | The Show and Tell Agency

Marty Fisher

President / Principal

Marty is father to five children and a dedicated husband, PC gamer (Nerd!) and passionate skier (both snow and water). Over 25 years, he grew Sherpa Marketing, one of Show and Tell’s legacy agencies, from a one-person shop to an agency with a talented roster of staff that provides full-stack advertising services to clients across the world, including Fortune 500 businesses.

Marty is inherently curious about all things “marketing.” His passion for learning has led to the discovery, creation and adoption of many technological advances in marketing technology. Whether it was building his first client website in 1998 or his first TikTok ad in 2020, he is always on the leading edge of what’s the next big thing. He has a natural ability to quickly find winning channels, SaaS platforms and technology for his clients.

His favourite band is U2 and his hobby is collecting boats. He says that his number one sports team is the Toronto Maple Leafs but we really think he means the Winnipeg Jets.

Marty has a B.A. in Economics from the University of Guelph.

Michael McCaffrey

Digital Marketing Consultant

If you’ve ever had the pleasure of being in a meeting with Michael, you’ll understand why he’s often thought of as a “Marketing Unicorn” 🦄

That’s because he’s both analytical and creative, which means he can help you with your “why” as well as your “what.” If you’re in it to get results, he’s the guy you want thinking about your business and how to scale it. He’ll challenge you, hold you accountable, and hold himself to the highest standard.

When he’s not making thought leadership videos about the sales funnel and talking about the customer-facing experience, he’s hiking and canoeing in the backcountry (check out his YouTube channel here → youtube.com/outdoorearthling), competing at a high level in sports (he’s a 5.0-rated pickleball player), playing chess (1800 rapid on lichess.org), and brushing up on nutrition and epidemiology.

Michael has also founded multiple businesses and has well over a decade of experience in marketing. He has a B.Comm (Hons.) from the University of Manitoba.

Deanna has been a member of the Show and Tell squad since 2018 and brings more than 20 years of agency experience to her A-game. Working out of the Kitchener, Ontario office, she is an upbeat and friendly face for clients, dedicated to making them look good. Her less productive sidekick, Hudson the Wonder Dog, is often in the office with her, and compensated for his work with peanut butter flavoured treats.

When Deanna is not juggling her Account Management responsibilities (one-handed, of course) she is committing time to several volunteer organizations in her community, chipping away at Barack Obama’s summer reading list, binge-watching the occasional cheesy medical drama, or scrolling through social to look at delicious food she is unlikely to cook.

Glenn is Show and Tell’s Chief Client Officer. What’s a Chief Client Officer, you ask? Well, he’s responsible for introducing clients to the agency, providing insight and oversight on client engagements, and ensuring they have access to the agency’s full suite of services.

He’s been with us since the COVID-19 outbreak (that’s another story for another time) and has been in marketing leadership roles since … well let’s just say it’s been longer than he likes to say (but you can guess based on his profile: www/linkedin.com/in/GlennCressman).

Glenn’s a golf nut (so when April rolls around, try not to get him started about the Masters), but he’s even more enthusiastic about his family (a devoted husband and proud father to three children).

Ten years later, Caitlin’s talents and leadership qualities have earned her the title of senior graphic designer, where she is well-known for her attention to detail across a wide range of projects. And during that time, she has designed a movie poster that graced the halls of a theatre, so in a roundabout way her childhood dream kind of came true.

After hours, Caitlin keeps busy gardening at home and in her neighbourhood community gardens and appeasing her dog Lilo.

Sergiy VolotovskyyJr. Copywriter

Sergiy Volotovskyy

Jr. Copywriter

Sergiy’s love of clever language first sparked when he was finishing his degree in History and Sociology and saw that the job market wasn’t looking too promising. So, he took a long hard look at his Bachelor of Arts degree and realized he was too mercenary to dedicate all his whimsy to just one or two fields.

After some more angst, he switched scenes and graduated with honours from Red River College Polytechnic’s Creative Communications program, specializing in advertising and marketing.

After skulking around the halls of Show and Tell as a student, Sergiy officially joined the agency in September 2023 as a Junior Copywriter, where he was greeted with a “Congrats… but we thought you already worked here.”

Despite his bashful interest in miniature painting and anything that can be played on a board, table or screen, Sergiy has been honorably knighted “Sir He” for bravely surviving thousands of name mispronunciations.

Since joining the agency in 2019, he’s proved he is more than a digital marketer; he’s also a visionary Mixed Reality Developer and regularly works with the agency’s creative team to blend virtual and real worlds.

Boris has a wealth of experience, boundless creativity, and “a heart that beats for innovation” to make him an integral part of Show and Tell’s digital excellence team.

Beyond the screen, Boris has a passion for the hard rock sounds of Soundgarden and gets an adrenaline rush watching mixed martial arts. But you might say his true love is cuisine, where he comes off as a true Italian aficionado.

Tamara Bodi

Director, Communications

In elementary school, Tamara wanted to be an astronaut. One day, she’d love to be a chef on a super yacht. Her role as Communications Director at Show and Tell keeps her busy with media relations and developing external and internal communications for clients and the agency. She likes to add a pinch of emotional intelligence to every communication she touches and a dash of creativity for good measure.

Chris Riehl

Director of Development

Meet Chris, a versatile programmer who combines technical expertise with creative flair, adding depth and innovation to every project. He is the mastermind behind turning complex code into seamless digital solutions. But that’s just the beginning. With a keen eye for detail and a passion for precision, Chris also excels as a 3-D artist, transforming concepts into captivating visual realities.

Off the digital canvas, you’ll often find Chris sketching out new ideas or hitting the ice for some exhilarating hockey action. A collector of sports cards, Chris’s appreciation for fine detail extends beyond programming, adding a unique layer to his multifaceted skillset.

We’re still trying to figure out what he’s thinking in the thought box sketched onto a white board behind his desk.

Ron SawchukVP Creative Services

Ron Sawchuk

VP Creative Services

Ron wasn’t always the VP of Creative Services at Winnipeg’s most recognized ad agency. His wide and varied interests meant that his first calling was to become a surgeon. But after a year of not taking notes at university and dissecting lab rats incorrectly, Ron remembered the suggestion his Grade 8 science teacher made to consider a career in advertising. Always a good listener, Ron put aside the potential embarrassment of medical malpractice lawsuits, and instead has spent the past 35 years creating successful ad campaigns, developing memorable brands and leading a team of talented creative individuals at the newly rebranded Show and Tell Agency. Ron believes in the notion of inspiring change for the agency’s clients and hopes one day to be an architect.

Katie SchusterArt Director

Katie Schuster

Art Director

Katie earned her spot as one of our talented art directors with her progressive, playful and human-centric approach to leadership and design. After graduating from Ottawa’s Algonquin College of Applied Arts and Technology in 2010, she worked her way to prairie country from parliament city. Soon after arriving in Winnipeg in 2016, she landed a graphic designer job at Show and Tell, and we’ve never looked back.

You can catch her in the wild fishing on Crow Lake, ON with her grizzled Frenchie, Oliver, or tinkering between lino-printing and charcoal drawing.

Arresting creative that gets noticed. Digital marketing that delivers results. With McKim and Sherpa Marketing now working as one, we’re excited to build a new legacy. Welcome to Show and Tell.
