Colleen Delaney

Senior Project Manager, Relationship management, based in New York

Is the world ready for a blonde, female version of Alan Siegel?

Let’s not try to picture that.

But the world had better be ready for a strongly motivated woman named Colleen Delaney. Alan’s a hero to Colleen because of the many good works he does and also because of his ability to effortlessly bring his creative talents to bear on the diversity of disciplines that go into the branding, simplification, and strategic branding business. And that’s why Colleen Delaney decided she wanted to separate herself from the sales-herd at Clear Channel Communications and come to work at Siegel+Gale, where the eponymous, iconic Alan himself roams the halls.

Now, as a project manager, she’s riding herd over the variegated American Express business at Siegel+Gale, helping to keep literally dozens of projects in the exciting, expanding world of Global Network Services stay on track, on-schedule, and on-budget.

New Jersey-born and –raised, Colleen matriculated at Salve Regina University in Newport, Rhode Island, where she majored in English with a concentration in advertising, journalism, and PR, and minored in psychology. Her sophomore year, Colleen boosted her average (academic and hurling a 12-pound sphere) by living in a bowling alley in Carey Mansion Dormitory… a background-noise level that adequately prepared her for the sometimes obstreperous “Open-Air” office environment at Siegel+Gale’s bustling New York headquarters.

An avid sportswoman, Colleen’s a talented shortstop on the softball pitch and a former cheerleader, but she’s up for any game, including football. Her extracurricular efforts include fund-raising to fight cancer, the George Washington Bridge Walk, and participating in Dennis Devlin FDNY Burn Unit Fund Raiser, named for her father’s best friend.
