HEY
I'm Jody - a Toronto based creative with over 14 years of experience in advertising and marketing. With a strong Art Direction and Design foundation, I’ve contributed to and led integrated campaigns, developed visual identities, and produced content across digital, social, TV, OOH, video, CRM, XM, event, motion, and print.
I thrive on creative problem solving, and close collaboration with copywriters, strategists, account and client services teams to bring big ideas to life. My passion spans traditional consumer advertising, healthcare and nonprofit, crafting creative work that makes an impact.
About 5 years ago I started a stationery brand called Everyday Yiddish to fill a void in the market for real, relatable, and funny Jewish greeting cards, which are now sold in over 180 gift shops, Jewish museums, and bagel counters worldwide.
