Badass. Hustler. Boss babe. These are a few words that describe Spanx CEO Sara Blakely.
But I am Janie Stolar, a remarkably humble creative director, comedy writer and nature lover.
In my current role as Creative Director at We Are Social, I lead always-on social and campaign creative.
My niche is building modern entertainment models for legacy brands. plugging names like Wheel of Fortune, Jeopardy!, Universal Pictures and Tripadvisor directly into the YouTube and social ecosphere.
Previously, I led social for brands including Microsoft, Adobe and Pepsi. I led a writers’ room for Apple TV (which won a One Show Silver Pencil). And I won two Gold Lions at Cannes for my work with Nutter Butter.
That’s not all. I live a parallel life in entertainment.
I was a writer on my favorite TV shows (Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, Bravo’s Chat Room, Billy on the Street), and I’ve written/directed/performed in online comedy videos that amassed millions of views for CollegeHumor/Dropout and SMOSH.
Sadly one thing I’ve never written is a snappy little bio, but I see everyone else writing very effective self-pitches and I’m proud of them.
OK, so…… Click around! Thank you!
