Jared Morris

Account Director/Creative Strategist

After living in Portland for a decade while working primarily at Nike in global communications and U.S. marketing, Jared moved to Brooklyn, where everyone has a crush on Portland. Three years later, he’s like all locals in having an opinion about the typeface of any restaurant menu. He is by nature and training a storyteller, with experience on the agency and client side. He showed early signs of promise when he was able to make the benefits of “reverse osmosis water filtration systems” sound compelling. (You try it.)

Jared has an MBA, is fluent in big words and has written so many speeches that he knows better than to use any of them. Of the ten marathons he’s run, he’d suggest the Marine Corps one in D.C., if personal safety is a criteria. Something about snipers on the Pentagon rooftop.

To the hospital, the day I became a father.
