No one asked me what it’s like to be a creative, but I answered anyway:

grit and grace

Hey, I’m Mirabelle Levis (Eze), a copywriter based in Toronto. I’m what happened after a journalist and botanist decided to say ‘I do’. Which is why I have the mind of a storyteller and the curiosity of a scientist.

Making a narrative out of pieces of insights, conversations, or experiences has always been my thing.

Making money from it – though – was completely unexpected. But here we are. HINT: I love it here.

My work has been recognized locally and internationally by The One Show, The Clios, ADCC, Applied Arts, The Webby’s and my mom’s Twitter page.

I'm a firm believer that equal amounts of grit and grace always bring about the best work. Check out some of mine and give me a shout at mirabelleoeze@gmail.com. Let’s see if we can get some more work on my mom’s Twitter page.

Does she have an AD partner? Yes, she does. I call him my ‘Brother in Advertising’: Olé Tshetlo

Clients: Home Depot, Hershey’s Kisses, Reese’s Canada, Jolly Rancher, Air Canada, BMO, SickKids, TD, Walmart, Pizza Pops, KFC, Winners, Clorox, Sobeys, Destination Ontario, Ontario Science Centre, IKEA, Westjet and more.
