Dan Hawes Portfolio

So Who is this Dan Hawes?

I am this Dan Hawes.

I am also an advocate of the belief that life is about balance.
That's why after I graduated from CU-Boulder, I decided to take some time off to travel the world. After years backpacking around the world studying the human condition, I readied myself to get back into my lifelong passion of advertising.

The second word got out I was returning to the professional world, the offers started pouring in. I turned down the all the fevered pleas to become CEO at countless Fortune 500 companies and got down to writing.

I know what you're thinking, sure he can write, and ya he can clearly has some background in art direction, and sure he is super awesome, but what sets him apart from all the other copywriters?

Well to start, I'm awesome at Mario Kart, a very marketable skill I know, but more importantly, I understand that today's copywriters need to be
adaptable to the constantly evolving world of advertising.
But wait, isn't evolution a myth made up by the liberal aliens
who invented the dinosaurs?
Wrong! That was clearly not what I meant, try to keep up.
Dinosaurs aside,
I offer a flexible and adaptable approach to this
zany and exciting world of advertising.

But hey, don't just take my word for it, listen to these testimonies from these real satisfied customers!
