Geez there’s almost more female CDs than men!
Go women!
Finally, an individual truly deserving of the title Creative Director. A title earnt through hard work, perseverance and actually producing great creative work! Keep up the great work JMak!
Onya J-Mak! Miss you long time!
JMak is an incredible person/creative who makes everything better.
What she managed to do with Chingy’s hair was nothing short of genius.
One of the few Australian people (male or female) who got their title from hard work and talent – not by playing the ‘I’m a woman’ card or taking CEOS to lunch.
Great to see good creatives leading the charge and getting some recognition! Way to go J Mak!
I have been really enjoying this series.Some of these CDs I already know and admire others I don’t.But they all seem talented people I would aspire to work with.Also what crossed my mind is just how many female CDs there are which is both surprising and pleasing.
J-Mak major defensive force in the key
After years of substandard, entitled, white boys club… Great to see some new hands in the senior ranks at ogilvy – killing it J Mak.
Patient, caring, kind and crazy talented. One of the nicest people you could ever hope to work with.
