Who are you?

Tenacious. Empathetic. Strategically-minded. Creatively-driven.

You are just as comfortable working on a brief in solitude for a week as you are jumping from project to project with intense collaboration. You can translate any brief into compelling copy, regardless of industry, medium or time limitations.

You take feedback like a champ because you understand, you learn, and you want to grow. You’re not afraid to speak up and give your opinion, share ideas and confidently steer a conversation when needed.
