A chance encounter with copywriting was all Kevin needed to jump in feet first. During his senior year of college, he came across David Ogilvy’s 1958 Rolls-Royce ad featuring the now-classic headline, “At 60 miles an hour the loudest noise in this new Rolls-Royce comes from the electric clock.” Already passionate about journalism and creative writing, Kevin found his niche in the art and science of copywriting.
He spent the next three-and-a-half years in the agency world crafting print, digital, and broadcast creative for clients nationwide. His portfolio includes campaigns in manufacturing, communications, automotive retail, and non-profit fundraising. Kevin’s favorite part of the gig is putting in the detective work to find the right message for the right offer to reach the right audience.
Talk to Kevin and he’ll tell you about his love for Biblical history, military biographies, and pro hockey.
