She is also a Badass Copywriter who has worked at a bunch of great, New York Ad Agencies in the past two decades, from lean, mean shops like Deutsch and Cliff Freeman and Partners to big, shiny ones like JWT and Edelman.
Sasha's even gotten Awards from places like Cannes, AICP Next, Communication Arts' Advertising, Design, Digital, and Typography Annuals, Webby, and Young Guns. Her ghostwritten Match profiles have been known to Increase Female Response Rates by over 50% and everything she's ever posted on Marketplace has sold at Full Value.
Mostly, she likes coming up with Smart Ideas, orchestrating the first television premiere on Twitter, wrote the first multipart Instagram series, developed full brand platforms for companies that went on to become much bigger deals, and most recently helped feed hundreds of thousands of cute dogs during the last three Super Bowls without ever spending Super Bowl money.
Sasha's currently available as a remote Gun for Hire, and is looking to beat her 9 for 9 Winning Pitch Streak as either a Power Couple or a Lone Shark depending on your needs. She divides her time between making ideas happen for clients and making ideas happen for the world as Co-Founder of TechBack, a new electronics recycling model built on data security, zero-landfill processing, and a slightly unreasonable belief that it should be both fun and free to do the right thing.
