Born and bred in Chicago. Lived and learned in DC & San Diego. I write wildy crafty narratives, campaigns, ideas, & identities (amongst other things).
Specialties include brand messaging, brand strategy , verbal branding, campaigns, social, naming, creative ideation, & more.
Before copywriting, I picked fruit and slung coconut water out of a van. After copywriting, I tell people I’m going to write a book, but I’m actually going to be an extra in low budget films.

“COPYWRITER”
I've unofficially defined the “copywriter" as a person whose most creative and passionate hours are spent connecting the attachments and memories of others to something unexpected.
It's poetry. It's art. It's strategy. It's smart. It's funny. It's messy. It's thrilling. It's raw. It's wild. Never perceived the same way by two sets of eyes. Because, when it comes to writing, there is no right. And there is no wrong.
Over the years, copywriting has brought me a sense of self and self confidence. A sense of purpose and partnership. Unlocking a form of legitimacy I never expected.
So…if you’re looking for someone as romantic (obsessive?) as I am about arranging words in crafty ways, send me a note: hello@jonahmalin.com
