Thom Kordonowy — Copywriter / Creative Director

Grew up in Minneapolis's western suburbs, spent early adulthood in Baltimore, then came back to make it big in advertising. Still working on that last part.

Over the years I've helped sell chicken wings, accounting software to accountants, and vanilla extract to people who actually care about vanilla extract. Other clients include CLR, Gorilla Glue, Great Clips, Best Buy, 3M, and an insurance company best known for nature programming. 

At three, I learned Super-Man pajamas don't grant the power of flight. My bloody lip needed stitches. The scars to our babysitter's psyche were probably longer lasting. I used to cook for a living and now live to cook. My secret work superpower is telling you what '80s or '90s movie a spot is riffing on (or ripping off). Once at the Target Center, Kevin Garnett winked at me. Pretty sure it was for me.

The best work happens when you're making things with people who care as much as you do. I'm lucky to work with people like that, and I'm always looking for more of them.
