Hey, I’m Holly!

I’m an Ohio University graduate who grew up in Columbus before eventually moving to New York City on a Megabus. My career in advertising started at Razorfish before I moved on to Droga5 to continue producing for brands such as Google, ESPN and The New York Times.

After an award-winning 2019 for my work on “The Truth Is Worth It” campaign, I left Droga5 to explore the world of freelancing. After five years of freelancing for top NYC and LA based agencies, I am thrilled to plant roots at Grey Midwest as Executive Producer.

When I’m not working, I can most often be found traveling, spending time with my cat Bodega and dog Phoebe, and teaching yoga. During 2023, I spent six months completing a northbound thru hike of the Appalachian Trail from Georgia to Maine.
