There’s a reason we couldn’t be happier about the newest addition to the deep team. Valerie Lea, who has joined deep as Group Account Director over brands like Nestle, Torani and Lamb Weston, brings tons of experience working with brands like Wonka, Tyson, Campbell’s Soup, Duncan Hines and Mrs. Butterworth’s to name a few. Plus, she’s an overall cool lady with great fashion sense — and we definitely need more of that at deep.
To help introduce her to all of our avid blog readers out there, we asked her to tell us a little bit more about herself. Here’s what we learned:
Us: Hey, Val, mind if we put you on the spot and ask us to tell us a little bit about yourself?
Val: I market. I talk. I write. I watch. I learn. I love.
Us: Oooh, us too! So tell us, what are some things you don’t like?
Val: Paying $3.00 for a gallon of gas, the sound of folding paper, Fig Newtons, lint, back hair, the crispy end of a French fry, people who wear socks with sandles or think that passing gas is funny, or the fact that my doctor is younger than me.
*The agency collectively begins to panic, realizing Val might hate us and our lint and back hair, etc.*
Us: Uhh, why don’t you tell us about things you like?
Val: I love going to movies, driving around looking at big beautiful houses that the Lord has blessed people with, drinking good coffee and eating even better pie, making people laugh, and talking to my friends around the kitchen table until 2:00 AM.
OK, so since we also like laughing and movies and coffee and pie and stuff, we think Val is a natural fit here. Plus, anybody who has a blog in which she talks proudly about solving problems and living life like a girl is a great person in our book.
Welcome, Val!
