Chesaré Hardy

Chesaré joined Drake Cooper in Spring 2024 as a Senior Project Manager, bringing a proven track record in producing and managing end-to-end campaigns for high-profile clients across the automotive, banking, retail, and entertainment industries. She’s calm under pressure, loves a good last-minute challenge, and—thanks to her former life as a Juilliard-trained dancer—knows exactly how to keep teams on point and in harmonious collaboration.

When she’s not guiding campaigns to success, you’ll find her hitting the slopes (#MammothMountain4Eva), road-tripping with her partner and rescue pups, or binging questionable TV shows. She also loves conjuring magic during her weekly Magic: The Gathering night. She’s delighted to be part of Drake Cooper’s collaborative, supportive team, helping both the agency and its clients thrive—while keeping everything running seamlessly along the way.
