As a graduate of the Iowa Writers' Workshop, Elliott began his career as a copywriter in New York where he realized his full potential of building lasting relationships with clients by learning about their needs and pain points to recommend the right marketing solutions that positively build, communicate and promote their brand to deliver results. Elliott's greatest pleasure comes from coaching and mentoring junior teams to realize their full potential of helping clients grow in automotive, CPG, financial services, food & beverage, healthcare, higher education and retail. Key client accounts have included: AT&T, Allstate, American Express, CAT Footwear, Clorox, B&G Foods, Blue Bunny, Butterball, Coyne College, Ford, HSBC, Mattel, Morton's Steakhouse, MB Financial, Mercedes, PepsiCo, Procter & Gamble and RXBAR.

As an avid cyclist, traveler and patron of the arts, you can find Elliott riding around Chicago with his wife and son to concerts and shows, or exploring new cultures and cuisines around the globe.  While a true "Mad Men" at heart, Elliott looks to Albert Einstein when in need of inspiration; "Creativity is intelligence having fun...Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere."
