Staff Writer
Marketing Magazine
February 2010 - December 2010 (10 months)
I came home from New York to join Canada's print and web paean to the advertising, marketing, media and creative industry. Whether in the more-than monthly magazine, the twice daily e-newsletters or the website, I covered everything from that new Tim Horton's TV spot to agency account changes, with a particular focus on innovative marketers and media.
My main duties at Ad Age included writing and updating feature and breaking news for AdAge.com, formatting print articles for the web, editing the daily e-newsletters, and copy editing the weekly magazine.
Reporter/Web Producer
Creativity Magazine
November 2006 - September 2009 (2 years 10 months)
This Advertising Age sibling publication is a curated archive of the best creative commercial work, as well as news and analysis from the global ad industry. I specialized in the relationship between business and pop culture, focusing primarily on advertising and its presence in design, film, art and technology.
My other responsibilities included daily maintenance of Creativity-Online.com and copy editing the monthly magazine.
Reflective of advertising's more-than frequent forays into mainstream culture, my articles were regularly linked to on blogs like Gawker and The Daily Swarm. Artist Shepard Fairey re-published my interview with him about his Obama work in his book, "Obey: Supply and Demand." http://amzn.to/1i5pq7K
