Whitley Is A Brooklyn-based, Award-winning, Creative Director, Writer, Internet Officiant.

At the ripe old age of three, Whitley Edwards was doomed to a life in advertising when her parents promoted her to middle child—a role that honed her ability to capture limited attention.

Kentucky-raised and Brooklyn-based, she’s a Creative Director and writer who’s spent 14 years turning human truths into award-winning 360 campaigns for brands spanning booze to beauty, streaming to snacks, and fashion to finance. She’s led and shaped creative at global machines and scrappy indies, helping one shop win 12 new accounts in a single year.

Her work’s been argued about on The Today Show and NPR, and high-fived by Cannes, The One Show, the Shorty Awards, The Webbys, ADC, and more.

When she’s not making people feel things about things, she gets a kick out of making love legally binding.
