Summary:

About you:

You’re a writer’s writer. You read books. You love words. You care about punctuation and the

rhythm and feel it gives a sentence, and you appreciated the em dash long before AI made

people second guess themselves for using one.

When it comes to copy, you’re equal parts strategist and stylist. You care deeply about what the

copy says and obsess over saying it in the most compelling way possible.

You’re curious, with an award-winning attitude. No matter how long you’ve been doing this,

you’re still eager to learn as much as you can from everyone you meet.

You love collaborating with smart, hardworking people who love the craft and hold themselves

to the highest standards of excellence.

Speaking of people, you care a lot about bringing humanity into everything you do.

You are genuinely interested in all kinds of businesses and want to understand how they

operate.

You know the difference between an idea and an execution.

You’re passionate about building great brands and creating the advertising that powers their

growth.

You have a lot of range. If you were an actor, you wouldn’t be the kind that plays the same role

every time. No, not you—you’d adapt, you’d adjust, and you’d bring something new to every

performance.

If this sounds like you, we want to hop on a Zoom as soon as possible.
