Guess which one I am.

Hi, I'm Leah.  

I’m a copywriter. Here’s how that happened.

After my undergrad at Ryerson, I had my heart set on account management. I became a personal assistant to the CDs at john st— my big break. I was a terrible assistant, but maybe that’s because I was practicing copywriting at my desk, for fun. I wrote some funny all-staff emails and the CDs offered to mentor me. I’m still trying to decide on the appropriate thank-you gift. The top contender right now is a kidney, but that just doesn’t feel like enough.

Right now? I’m working at Sid Lee, lucky to be the dumbest person in a room full of geniuses.

Experience

Copywriter at Sid Lee, Copywriter Intern at Juliet, Sub-Par Assistant at john st.

Bachelors of Creative Industries, Ryerson University 2017
