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 for wonderful clients including Sony Game Shows (Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy!) and Tripadvisor.
Previously, I led social for brands such as 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.
Meanwhile, I’ve lived a meaningful parallel life in the entertainment sphere.
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!
