ACD/Copywriter at Digital Influence Group
Greater Boston Area
I've been a writer for at a slew of ad agencies like RPA, Team One, Anderson Lembke, McCann, Riney, DDB LA, TBWA\Chiat, Deutsch LA, AKQA, Y & R/Wunderman, Saatchi & Saatchi LA, Hamon-Associates, Direct Partners, OIC, miller huber, Roxburgh, Fattal & Collins, and PJA Advertising. I also rode the dotcom roller coaster at Egreetings. And now I’m at a digital marketing shop that focuses on social media: Digital Influence Group.
Like most ad writers, I know a little about a lot of things and not much about any one subject.
Which explains how I can write almost as if I know what I'm talking about when it comes to: boxing, mobile phones, mobile ad technology, social media, LED lighting, ubiquitous broadband, structural engineering, cars, mortgages, biotech, beer, cruise ships, supplements, skin care, sneakers, perfume, tennis, coffee, tea, wine, the environment, the homeless, the life sciences, health care, hardware, software, database warehousing, bread, water, gambling, education, hotels, tires, entertainment, real estate, greeting cards, and piloting small aircraft.
I've applied my pea brain to these topics and more via social media (facebook apps, blogs, communities, twitter, etc.) websites, banners, print, TV, radio, design, and things you can stick on walls, in snail mailboxes, inboxes, and in peoples' hands.
But enough about me. The proof is in the writing. Check out my blog at www.rebecccariverawritingwell.blogspot.com or my portfolio at www.rebeccarivera.com.
