Creative Director/Copywriter

About

Hi, I’m Miranda, an unphotogenic copywriter and creative director based in Berkeley. I started at AKQA in 2007, went freelance in 2013, and have been at it ever since— often with my dog.

My work has run the gamut, but much of it has involved gaming (XBox), new technology (AI), and branding (West). On longer projects, I’ve done it all: started and managed teams; won pitches and awards; cozied up to tricky clients and gotten Stockholm syndrome.

In my spare time, I’m writing fiction books for an audience of one.
