About Me
Domenique Raso
I love to talk about anything, but I do find it a little hard to talk about myself (she coyly says).
That’s because I hope my work speaks for itself. And possibly because I’m lazy?
But here’s the TL:DR about me:
I’m a Creative Director (with a copywriting background) at Courage Inc in Toronto and I’ve worked in advertising for over 15 years.
I’m a mom of two brilliant babies who are nothing short of child prodigies, and I can genuinely say that motherhood has made working in advertising feel like a vacation. Dealing with an irrational toddler has given me the patience to deal with the most unreasonable of clients. And I’ll take a late-night deck over a night of sleep training any day.
I love people. Maternity leave was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done (twice) because of how isolating and lonely I found it. Working exclusively from home is also not for me and I need to work at a place with strong culture.
I will be the person who organizes the office volleyball or soccer team. I’m also extremely competitive.
My toxic trait is thinking I can make most things instead of buying them, then spending hundreds of dollars on crafting supplies, sewing lessons, and air-dry clay, only to never actually finish making the thing.
I think I’m a great person to work for and with. I am opinionated, but the first to admit what I don’t know. I generally approach my work and life with an open mind and sense of humour. I feel incredibly lucky to work in an industry that allows me to do so and to always be unapologetically myself.
Ok that was actually pretty L, thanks for R’ing it all!
