Diane Olson
I'm a senior copywriter at McCann Worldgroup Salt Lake, working on all things Verizon. I have a solid background in journalism and a boatload of awards from the Utah Chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists to show for it, including two First Place for investigative reporting. I write a monthly column, now entering its 17th year, for Catalyst magazine, and have a book--A Nature's Lover's Almanac: Kinky Bugs, Stealthy Critters, and Prosperous Plants--published by Gibbs Smith, coming out in June 2012. I do freelancing editing and proofing, as well as writing.
Greg Foster
Hello, my name is Greg. That’s what my mom, friends and family call me, despite my unrelenting efforts for them to address me as the “Mercenary of the Apocalypse.” I’m a writer, with a laptop that rivals the aim and stealth of Seal Team 6, alongside a pretty kick-ass boyfriend, proud University of Utah graduate, sports connoisseur, bar tender, gym rat, fashion/sneakerhead and pop-culture junkie. I make the best Bloody Marys and buffalo burgers your taste buds will ever have the pleasure of savoring. I have concocted an algorithm that scientifically proves that Led Zeppelin is the greatest musical ensemble of all time. Jack Nicholson is my hero (I forgive him for being a Lakers fan). Despite what I accomplish throughout my life, being voted “most opinionated” my senior year of high school will always rank as number one. I will obliterate you in a game of Scrabble. My ultimate plan is take over the world, one piece of hot copywriting sorcery at a time.

Jonathan Alma Hill
I was conceived in Seattle, Born in Utah, raised in South America and discovered the true meaning of life off a secluded dirt road deep within the rain forests of the Yucatan Peninsula.
Writing words is my passion - I currently satisfy my highly unnatural cravings to craft copy-written constructions by creating hundreds of monthly pieces of social content for local, national and international clients, maintaining the company blog, writing in my free time for fun (yep..fun) and producing freelance copy for the web and other mediums.
I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Mass Communications from the University of Utah. When I'm not using the skills I learned in college to stop forest fires, nurture injured puppies to health and prevent politically arranged Middle Eastern weddings in the name of true love, I'm making music and spending time with my lovely wife, Chrissie.
I'm in love with the world of marketing, new media and communications. I working extremely hard and actually enjoy working into the night and on weekends whenever it's necessary. My professional field is a volatile one, so I try to stay humble and open-minded while learning new things daily. Work just isn't worth doing if it's not the absolute best I can do–I hope this core personal belief makes me as valuable to my employer and clients as I can possibly be.
Josh Ormond
I'm a copywriter with experience writing copy. (See what I did there?) When I run I go faster, when I walk I get bored. Simple is best. Simple is hard. I like doing things the hard way.
