About Jon Wagner

Hi. I\'m Jon, without the H. I\'m an Emmy-award winning writer. Thinker. Big, hairy problem solver. Doer. I’m one to roll up my sleeves, get dirty, and do the work. In my 20+ years of experience, I have won new business pitches, managed teams as large as twenty and as small as two, created new brand platforms, devised creative models that helped clients avoid paying even a dime for production, and broken complex problems and subject matters into simple creative solutions that drive cultural conversation.I have a deep experience in the technology category: working on award-winning campaigns for IBM Watson AI and Google Gemini AI; IBM Cloud, Blockchain and Quantum computing. I\'ve been recognized by Cannes Lions, One Show Pencils, the Art Directors Club, Clios, London International, and Communication Arts. I won Ogilvy New York its first-ever Emmy Award for Best Commercial in 2006. And because once is never enough, I got the agency a second Emmy nomination four years later. My campaigns have had editorial write-ups in the New York Times and Time Magazine. My films are part of MoMA Film Archives. And my print is in the permanent collection of the Cooper-Hewitt Design Museum. I’ve had the pleasure of working with celebrities and influencers like Ellen DeGeneres, Beyonce, Conan O’Brien, Janelle Monáe, Tina Turner, Gwneyth Paltrow, Hugh Jackman, and the founder of the #MeToo movement, Tarana Burke. I’ve collaborated with some of the best directors in the business. People like Teri Timely, Bryan Buckley, The Mercadantes, Paul Hunter, Tim Godsell, Mark Romanek, and Lance Acord. I’ve worked closely with senior leadership of IBM, Google, American Express, Audi, IKEA, Coca-Cola, Time Warner, TJMaxx, Nationwide, Philips Lighting, GMC, Philips Healthcare, Macy’s, and Samsung.And I would probably enjoy working with you.
