There’ve been a bunch of new faces popping out of the cubicles here at Hoffman | Lewis in the Central West End.

Leslie Bursack joined our ad agency a couple of months ago as a senior media planning supervisor. She came to us from Rodgers Townsend and has 19 years of media experience. Leslie is already helping out with Missouri Tourism, St. Louis CVC, Ashley Furniture and Phillips Furniture. Outside of media, she also enjoys juggling the varied schedules of her husband, three daughters and two cats.

Annie Ellegood has joined the McDonald’s account team as an account supervisor. She has spent her career on different sides of the business and contributes to a local industry blog under the moniker, “The ADgitator.” She also eats one bacon sandwich per day. True fact.

Shannon Kilchrist is our newest account executive who will be leading our PR and grassroots efforts for McDonald’s. She has built a career as a PR and communications leader after spending time as TV journalist.

Bonnie Thornhill just stepped in as our new project manager. Like Leslie, her most recent stint was at Rodgers Townsend where she spent five years in project management and art buying. She also volunteers with Stray and Rescue and Big Brothers, Big Sisters.

Then, there’s Nick. Nick is a writer, fresh out of Chicago Portfolio School. He came to us with a great book and an even better attitude.

We’re excited to have everyone and expect to do more great things in the near future.
