Leadership & Collaboration
Heather is an award-winning creative who has been at the ad game for nearly two decades. She's Nashville born, but has spent her career in Chicago. Her big Southern personality has never left her though, and makes for some pretty collaborative and client-facing skills. Heather grew up on photo shoot sets - her dad, brother, and sister are all creatives. The apple didn't fall far from the Magnolia tree. She's led and created work across every channel: from traditional, digital, social, and even spent a few years in PR. Some of her accounts have included a wide suite of Constellation brands including Modelo and Kim Crawford, KFC, Kraft Heinz, ACE Hardware, and SC Jonhnson, just to name a few. Scroll down for more of Heather and Jen's combined brand experience. When she's not working, she's probably exchanging stupid memes and gifs with Jen.

Jen had a whole professional comedy career before she got into advertising. In fact, as an alum of Boom Chicago in Amsterdam and The Second City, Jen’s probably worked with everybody that ever made you laugh on stage, tv and film. Everyone plays better when Jen is leading the team. She helps ad creatives step into their greatness. And one of her superpowers is her ability to draw upon her vast comedy network to attract different, brilliant thinkers to the fray. Her unique ability to coach collaboration across agency disciplines solves big business challenges and wins opportunities. She’s led and directed work for Ty, Chili’s, Nike Chicago, Illinois Tourism, Big Lots, Home Chef and Illinois Cares For Kids, to name just a recent few.
