BONA FIDES
Hello, I’m Anthony.
I'm a Portland-based CD Copywriter with a background in the art world.
After graduate school at NYU, my professional creative journey started as a brand designer. I worked my way up to agency art director and about 10 years ago made the transition to copywriting. Still got love for those pixels though.
I love to collaborate with awesome teams to crack big strategic ideas and execute on them. All to help brands tell their story and ideally move some product in the process
Sometimes I work as a creative lead orchestrating complex projects and other times I’m an individual contributor cranking out whatever writing a project needs: killer headlines, manifestos, brand guidelines, strategic positioning, scripts, etc. etc. etc. … You name it. I’m on it.
As you click around, you’ll see a range of work.
From scrappy startups to Fortune 500s.
Biotech to beer.
Fitness to pharma.
B2B to B2C to THC
Lately, I'm particularly enthusiastic about incorporating Generative AI tools into the creative workflow. Exciting times.
If you have questions, reach out.
If you have compliments, drop a line.
If you have a creative problem that need cracking, let’s make some magic.
I’m looking for both contract and full-time roles.
Thanks for swinging by!
I hope you like the work.
