Hi.
I'm Mia Silverman.
Following 9 years at Saatchi & Saatchi, I've recently taken the leap into the freelance world as a Creative Director/ Creative. I started my career in 2011 as an Art Director, but in recent years I have worked mostly as a Copywriter, so I guess that makes me a Bit of Both. The work on this site is a combination of things I've loved making as a solo creative, in creative teams and leading projects. When I'm not at work you can find me having an existential crisis supporting Tottenham Hotspur.
It happens often.
If you're an indie agency, in-house or sporty humans and have exciting freelance projects, I'd love to chat.
