Alysa is a creative copywriter/UX writer/content strategist at Kitchen in Prague, Czech Republic. (Love seeing international portfolios.) Her work is broken out into seven sections: iGaming Industry, Automated Email Marketing, Chatbots + Tech, AI + Blockchain, Art Trading Platform, Creative Agency, and Personal Articles. Whew! In Personal Articles don’t miss “Why I Decided to Leave the U.S.” in Medium. Makes MC want to move to Prague.

Andrew Hajjar

Andrew is an ACD/copywriter at McCann in NYC. The work in his portfolio is killer—but it’s the format of his book that puts it over the top. Andrew has created #BAÑOBOOK: “the first Instagram-based copywriting portfolio designed to fight dwindling site visits by focusing on ‘toilet-top’ rather than ‘desktop’ views.” Instead of describing it further, MC encourages all to have a seat, take a load off, and enjoy.

Samar is a new copywriter and recent grad of Miami Ad School Hamburg. All kinds of cool ideas up on his site, including You Are Here for Penguin Audiobooks (smart), Snack Unseen for Cheez-Its, Whopper Spooky Search for Burger King, and Sleepless for VW (love seeing headline-as-visual ads). If possible, check out Samar’s site on desktop view to see his you-type-his-words landing page. Fun idea.
