ABOUT

About Liz Newman, award-winning creative director and copywriter.

Why hello there stranger. Let’s get to know each other. I’ll go first.

When I was a little Lizzie, pictures circled in my head like swarms of bees. I tried to sketch them as my brain saw them, only to end up crossing Xs across thousands of imperfect attempts. Piles and piles of reject drawings later, I realized deforestation wasn’t the answer. It was words.

Writing started as a consolation prize that grew into a passion that led to a career. And here I am today.

Along the way, I’ve done everything from social to experiential, traditional to earned, category-defying to awe-inspiring, amassing quite a bag of tricks I love to share. Whether I’m conjuring a manifesto, manifesting a brand campaign, or decoding a challenging client ask, I harness the bees without fear of getting stung.

I firmly believe images can speak and words can paint. When the two unite, souls take notice. So let’s make work that scares us and reminds us why we’re here.

When I’m not cracking briefs…
I’m on my yoga mat, being a pom mom, or watching a wrestler buy stuff off the dark web.

As an unofficial side gig…
I taste carrot cake at different restaurants and rate the goodness on a scale from 1-5.

Something I can’t live without…
image generation. After a lifetime of pictures trapped in my head, I can finally see my thoughts side-eyeing me like i’m the weird one.

What I listen to, WATCH and read…
my playlists refuse to pick a lane. my guilty pleasures are Documentaries about cults and bad reality tv. i’ll read any reddit thread or a comic response to a catastrophe. all subject to change by next tuesday.

IF I WERE AN ANIMAL, I’D BE A…
Giraffe. because i stick my neck out for things I believe in, Stay curious and eat leaves.
