ABOUT
Sophie Hessekiel is an LA-based, New York-bred writer with over a decade of professional writing experience. Her work can be seen in Newsweek, Mashable, and The LA Times. She was the writers' assistant on multiple seasons of television, including Fox’s The Cleaning Lady, where she co-wrote episode 207.
Sophie has completed coursework from The Book Shop Ad School and written content for all audiences — everything from Playgirl to Squishmallows.
Her first real job in media was working from midnight to 9am making photocopies at Good Morning America. It was there she learned that sleep is for the weak. Now she’s taking all that experience and using it to build strategic ad campaigns that cover all those forms of media she’s worked on.
