Testimonials
Sara Cardace
Direct manager at Zulily
"Chelsea is one of the strongest creative strategists I’ve had the pleasure of working with. She’s one of those creatives who has thought through every strategic angle and potential executional flaw before she comes to the table for reviews. She’s a pro at presenting her work and taking feedback, but she’s also comfortable pushing back when there’s an issue that an internal client has failed to account for. Chelsea has an instinctive drive to train and cascade information to those junior to her, so she also has great leadership potential. I would hire her again in a heartbeat and would heartily recommend her for any senior copy- and content-related roles (ACD Copy, copy/content manager, et al)!"
Thig Gishuru
Direct manager at Zulily
"I had the pleasure of working with Chelsea in her role as Sr. Copywriter. She reported directly to me and was our senior most writer. She's truly one of the smartest and most strategic writers I've ever worked with and is driven to produce high quality work. What I found most impressive about her skillset is her critical thinking and curiosity. She's not afraid to challenge old ways of thinking and she is brave enough to push for new and better ideas with the intention of making every campaign bigger and better. She's professional and brought a positive attitude to work every day. Chelsea is an incredible asset to anyone lucky enough to have her on their creative team."
