Diana Hou

Diana is a new copywriter in NYC searching for her first junior copywriter position after studying at Adhouse and interning at Gus. In her past lives, she’s been a data analyst in corporate, non-profit, and political campaign environments, and briefly a mushroom farmer. Can’t wait to see where she lands!

Justin Cannon

Justin is a copywriter at Forsman & Bodenfors NYC. Since his last post on MC (back on 11.15.17), he’s been busy. Awesome work on his site for Friendly’s, Saucony, Seagram’s 7, and Oatly, which MC saw all over San Francisco for a time. Very cool. He’s also got a bunch of humor writing, cartoons, and other good stuff up there. Time for an update!

David Butler

David is a copywriter at MKG (Experiential Marketing) in Brooklyn, NYC. All kinds of fun projects in his portfolio, which he’s designed to look exactly like a Gmail inbox (complete with easter eggs including the search bar, green minimize button, hamburger menu, etc.). Dig it. Also dig the photos of David’s foster dogs. High-five, DB. You’re good peeps.

Pete Pirone

Pete is a copywriter at Newell Brands in NYC, before that Macy’s. His book is mostly a mix of spec projects (always fun to see), including work for Whole Foods, Citi Bike, Squarespace, Snyder’s, GNC, and Cartoon Network (above). He’s also got separate pages dedicated to digital writing and personal projects—the latter focused on Walt Disney World, of which Pete is a huge fan. (As is MC.) “In every job that must be done, there is an element of fun.” – Mary Poppins.

Mark Walter

Mark is a senior copywriter at DigitasLBi in NYC. Sometimes you click through a writer’s site and you can tell that the person on the other end of the portfolio just loves making stuff. Definitely the case with Mark’s site. After “Selected Work” (password for protected projects, including featured spot above, is ‘happy’), don’t miss “Side Projects” and “Etc.” Good times.

Britton Upchurch

Britton is a new copywriter in NYC after graduating from Adhouse. He’s got nine student projects in his portfolio for brands like Puma, Canada, and Virgin Mobile. What’s more fun than looking through a school portfolio and seeing what someone chose to do, for whom, when they could do anything for anyone? Nothing. Nothing’s more fun. Good luck to Britton, can’t wait to see where he lands!

UPDATE: Louis Wittig

interesting

Since his last post on MC (03.06.11), Louis moved to Euro where he worked on Dos Equis and The Most Interesting Man in the World, then to Grey New York where he works on everything from Pringles to Purolator. On the side, he’s also doing something awesome for the CW community. From Louis: “I do a Google Helpout where anyone (students mostly) who wants me to take a look at their portfolio can set a up a time, video chat with me, and I’ll tell them what I think. It’s completely free.” To check out Louis’s Helpout: Click here. Big ups, Louis!

Louis Wittig

Louis is a junior copywriter at iNDELIBLE in NYC. His portfolio features a campaign for the American Heart Association that uses the nastiness of pizza grease to deliver its message in an ingenious way (above). His portfolio also features an app for Little Caesars pizza. And there, my friends, is the copywriter conundrum. We saveth from heart attack. We selleth the heart attack.

Laurence Gega

Laurence is a copywriter at Berlin Cameron United in NYC. He shares a site with creative partner/AD Jason Slack. There’s a bunch of killer work on their site for the NHL, Land Rover, Snickers, Kindle, etc., but I just had to feature the awesomeness above from their “not advertising” section, labeled simply “World’s Greatest Ad.”

Jennifer Di Giorgi

Jennifer is a copywriter/ACD at Energy BBDO in Chicago. She shares a site with art director/creative partner Krystyn Campbell. They call themselves AdCreatures and they look like a hell of a lot of fun (as well as super talented). Check out Jennifer’s Save The Date postcard, the last piece in Other. Tell me you don’t wish you were at that wedding.
