Jacob Shipley is a copywriter based in Los Angeles. He’s currently working at TBWA/Chiat/Day, where he makes campaigns for Jack in the Box. Before that, he worked at Deutsch, where he made work for Nintendo, and at 180LA, where he made work for Orgain and Cox. He learned how to do all this at UT Austin, where he made student campaigns for Burger King and Men’s Wearhouse, as well as dumb promo videos for portfolio reviews. But now he doesn’t go to school, so he spends his free time trolling LinkedIn, writing one-liner movie reviews, recording fake radio shows, and reminiscing about making stop motion Geico ads when he was 14. If that’s not enough information for you to steal his identity and gain access to his numerous personal banking accounts, all of which are growing at unbelievable rates that you can’t even imagine, you can send suspicious emails to jacobshipley9000@gmail.com.
