SINGULARLY PLURAL

After starting early in journalism (paper route, age 10), Steve earned a master’s in English from Johns Hopkins University and had three jobs that he loved: He was a senior writer at Ogilvy Public Relations, assistant editor of a national medical magazine and a teaching fellow in English at Phillips Academy in Andover. Today Steve oversees all the G+A team’s work, doing a little writing, a little editing and a lot of orchestrating. (And he still reads the newspaper every morning.)

Steve cut his copy chops 30 seconds at a time, writing ads for clients of a local NBC TV affiliate. In 15+ years at G+A, his prose has persuaded associations to improve their management, foodies to flock to Australian lamb and science stars to use their powers for good. When he’s not stuck on I-270, Steve enjoys reading what other people wrote and watching other people play sports.

Jill’s journey to G+A involved a newspaper in Omaha, an ad agency and tech firm in Denver, journalism school, business school and projects in Central America and Africa. While at G+A, she’s written everything from white papers on a wide range of B2B topics to web content promoting hair removal products. An avid traveler, she’s haggled with vendors and enjoyed cheesy late-night programming in five continents.

Steve is the author of numerous novels, most historical tales about hopeful underdogs. In an earlier life he was a Fulbright Fellow in Germany and earned an MA in history. Other roles included busy waiter, English teacher, Associated Press rookie. He later authored creative nonfiction, translated bestselling German fiction, and tackled a range of freelance copywriting projects. A hopeless soccer geek, he lives in his hometown of Portland, Oregon with his wife René.

Logan has spent his career ghostwriting books, articles, and social media posts for a variety of clients. He has published articles under his own name for outlets such as Gizmodo, Physics World, History Magazine and The Pennsylvania Gazette. Logan enjoys helping clients explain complex topics in a way that lay readers can easily understand. In his free time, he is working to publish his fantasy novel.

Prior to joining G+A, Merry ran a writing business for more than a decade, where she worked with clients ranging from Fortune 500 companies to passionate entrepreneurs. She has vast experience with digital marketing, including SEO content (B2B and B2C), and she gets jazzed about all aspects of creative marketing writing. When Merry isn’t working with client content, she’s writing her own fiction, playing with her very spoiled hound dog, or talking about baseball (usually the Cubs).

Amy’s background in theater criticism and ancient Greek and Latin somehow led her to a fulfilling copywriting career. Before joining the team at G+A, she was a freelance writer for 15 years, writing (among other things) reviews of Off-Off-Broadway plays, articles for various websites, and web content and email newsletters for a plethora of companies. An avid reader, she never goes anywhere without at least one book.
