Testa+Headshot+2019.jpg

Charlie Keaton is the pen name and alter-ego of Hawaii-based writer/producer Dominic Testa, former Editorial + Brand Strategy Director for Modern in Denver magazine. That’s me.

I create videos and written content for media and businesses. Brubaker Creative, my storytelling and strategic consulting firm, takes on select projects for small- to mid-size clients with demonstrable social or community value.

In a previous life I was Director of Development for The USA Swimming Foundation and Executive Director of the education non-profit The Big Brain Club. I’ve worked in media, publishing, amateur and professional sports, and for philanthropic organizations big and small. In 2016 I co-founded Denver Design Week. My wife says I make a mean veggie stir fry.

As a volunteer I’ve served on the Daniels Fund Scholarship Committee, as Co-Chair of The Art District on Santa Fe’s annual summer film series, and as Communications Chair on an advisory board for the Denver Center for Performing Arts.

Let’s connect. I’m not hard to find or follow:
