About Me

Hi there! My name is Carly and this is my headspace. I realized early on in my career that complete creative freedom is something you only get when you don’t have a boss. I started this blog to give myself a platform to experiment with ideas that would otherwise die an untimely death in a conference room.

If you like it, stay a while. If you don’t, no hard feelings you were probably just trying to find a good review about stand up desks and Google failed you.

A little about me, I was raised on Elton John music and sugar. I’m an LA transplant known for my abnormally long femurs and reactions to VR horror films. My friends and husband insist on calling me by my nickname: Carly Bird.

Work

I have been working for 6 years in advertising with a focus on content strategy. I help brands find creative ways to tell their story across a smorgasbord of digital platforms including social media, content marketing and sometimes even virtual reality. I have skills in graphic design, HTML, video editing and of course Settlers of Catan.

Feel free to contact me for any questions or for new opportunities at hello@carlybird.com.

    Awesome blog posts! You gots da humor, girl. I hope you rock it on MoBach, and I’ll whisk you away to your local McD’s for some soul food should things go south.

    Woah, sorry I was looking up Carly Simon and I found this site . . . . Uhm, I was named after Carly Simon, too. Weird, huh? And even WEIRDER, if those pictures are really of you, I have blond hair too! And blue eyes, but I’m a lot younger than you, of course. I’m thirteen, woah, said my age, I’m gonna get kidnapped. . . Anywho, cool website. And nice to meet a fellow Carly! (:

    Well, after listening to your voice and a few songs, I am thinking you are much better than the most of the people on American Idol.

    Great voice. Good luck in your ventures Carly.

    Hey Carly, I am that guy from Austria you made an interview with at Venice Beach (who looks like the Bachelor, you told me). I cant find the 2 videos you made with me/us. Maybe you can send me the link. Greetings

    Helpful information. Lucky me I discovered your website unintentionally,
    and I am surprised why this twist of fate did not happened earlier!

    I bookmarked it.
