ME

Hi. My name is Liv. It's pronounced LEEV—the "I" makes an "E" sound, just like in the word ski (the sport my Norwegian ancestors invented). Basically, I'm a modern-day Viking, cool braids and all. When I'm not making ads, I'm an avid outdoors-woman, world traveler and supporter of Chicago sports teams (all of them).

With 15 years in the Advertising game, I’ve worked at some cool places. Mostly, on the agency side. Currently, exploring the client side as a VP Creative Director at J.P. Morgan Chase helping drive creative and being a collaborative and seasoned ally to our partner agencies creating everything from 200 pieces of scrappy social to multi-million dollar campaigns. No brand sets out to make invisible work. Brands need to be brave and stay curious. High-performing creative work is 16X more likely to bring major profitable growth - so I work brand side now helping to do just that. I touch all lines of business - Sapphire Reserve, Consumer Banking, Freedom, Chase for Business, Ink, Freedom and Home Lending.

I have an MFA in Advertising from Savannah College of Art and Design (Go Art!) and BFA in Advertising Design from Syracuse University (Go CUSE!). 

And for the last 12 years I’ve served as a Board Member of an amazing international non-profit called Deepwater Experiential Education Project. D.E.E.P provides funding for young people from diverse cultural and economic backgrounds to participate on 20-day canoeing expeditions in northern Canada. I also served a 3 year term as USA President while being a new mom.
