COPYWRITING BIO:
I'm a Senior Copywriter who has worked on the biggest brands in the world and won many awards.
When the agency was tasked with coming up with a big idea for VISA that would rival Mastercard's "Priceless" campaign, I came up with "If life were like that, you wouldn't need a VISA card. The first commercial in the campaign was short-listed at Cannes. And a spot I later wrote, "Didn't See The Sign," is often brought up as one people's favourite commercials ever.
When people find out that I was the angry mini Scottish man in the Nutri-Grain Minis commercials (which I wrote as well as acted in), they are like, "I loved those ads! Those were my favourite! I still quote them!"
I was sent to Tokyo twice to help out a sister agency on a detergent ad because I was the one who really understood women's relationship to detergent. And the P&G client in Tokyo had worked with me when he was in Cincinnati and he loved my work.
I'll write more on this topic later and post samples of my work.
