A.W. Elliott

My career is built on creating breakthrough brand & content strategy, delivering award-winning campaigns, and driving organization-wide transformation in an emerging media landscape. Over the last 10 years, I’ve had the privilege of doing just that for a few incredible brands: Audi, National Geographic, and most recently as Director of Social and Emerging Media at Verizon.

Across multiple industries, I constructed social departments, scaled digital production, pioneered new media platforms, stole the Super Bowl spotlight from competitors, reshaped the purchase funnel, crafted global influencer programs, turned employees into advocates, and received recognition at Cannes a few times along the way.

Previously, I spent time in the trenches at Ogilvy & Mather where I had the chance to oversee Ford’s global community and help guide BP’s social efforts through the largest environmental crisis of the last few decades.

I’m passionate about the forefront of media and technology, and share my own learnings by teaching classes at Rollins College and the Miami Ad School, judging the Effie Awards, and volunteering for FIRST Robotics.
