CLIENTS :
HE TAKES THE WORK SERIOUSLY WITHOUT TAKING HIMSELF TOO SERIOUSLY
Elijah Di Gangi is more than just a multisyllabic mouthful. He’s also a wise-cracking Associate Creative Director (Writer) residing in Toronto’s West End. He graduated from Wilfrid Laurier University in 2009 with an Honours Bachelor degree in Communications. After exploring the South Pacific, he completed Humber’s Postgraduate Copywriting program in 2011.
Over the last decade+, he’s worked his way up from a lightbulb-changing intern who would eat strange things from the agency fridge for beer money, to a seasoned ACD who oversees multi-million dollar accounts and leads creative teams. Despite his increased responsibilities, he remains egoless, organized, and mostly smells nice.
His work has been recognized at The Clios, The MIAs, The Marketing Awards, The CMAs, The Strategy Awards, ADCCs, Echos, Applied Arts, Communications Arts, and SIAs.
When Elijah's not juggling creative briefs and sprinting between meetings, he’s filling his plate with food, fitness, and future travel plans like the millennial cliché he is.
