Alexandra Sann is an LA-based freelance Creative Director/Copywriter with experience working on a range of iconic brands like Beats by Dre, Visa, AT&T and Venmo. She’s also worked with smaller brands and start-ups. She recently led the branding and launch of Yumi, a local fresh baby food delivery start-up that went national its second year, and is now going global.

Prior to freelancing, Alex was a Creative Director at Crispin, Porter Bogusky LA where she led work for Grey Poupon, Old Navy, Braintree and Applebee’s.

Throughout her career Alex has worked at top agencies with some of the best creatives in the business. She began her career at Ogilvy NY where she worked on a lot of bubbly beverages - Miller Lite, Sprite and Pellegrino, and the less bubbly IBM and Amex. She then went on to work at Chiat LA and NY, working on Visa, Call of Duty, Energizer, Snickers and Nextel. In between she worked at a bunch of great smaller places that don’t exist anymore like Cliff Freeman & Partners, Amalgamated and Toy.

Alex is a hands-on leader who loves the craft, and working with great people. She’s equally comfortable wrangling huge brand productions across multiple partner agencies and the scrappier, make-it-yourself projects. She’s in it for whatever it takes to get great work done.

 Her work has been recognized by major advertising award shows, nominated for an Emmy and spoofed on late night TV.
