Simon Rogers
Since completing the copywriting program at Chicago Portfolio School in 2012, Simon has worked at DDB Canada, Cossette, and most recently at lg2 Toronto as Associate Creative Director. He’s created work for brands of all sizes, including McDonald’s, Kuerig Dr. Pepper, General Mills, VW, SickKids, Public Mobile, ManchuWOK, and IG Wealth Management. Over the years, some of Simon’s work has won shiny awards from Cannes, The One Show, D&AD, ADCC, and others, but good god, how much listing can you justify in one bio?
Liam Johnston
As Simon likes to say, “Liam is one of those art school art directors.” And it’s true. After spending most of his childhood drawing life instead of living it, Liam decided to use his drawing skills to make a living. Since graduating from OCAD in 2008, he’s worked at a number of Canada’s top creative agencies, including Red Urban Toronto, DDB Canada, JWT Canada, and most recently at lg2 Toronto as an Associate Creative Director. Liam’s work has won awards from shows like Cannes, Communication Arts, The Advertising & Design Club of Canada, Type Directors Club, and more. He still misses art school, because it was nice not being the weirdest person in the room.
