An award-winning writer with over a decade of experience, David Povill was born with a pen in his hand, much to his mother’s discomfort.

After honing his skills at the VCU Adcenter, he then went on to work at some of the top agencies in the country, including CP+B, Chiat/Day, Deutsch, and Wieden + Kennedy. His work on brands like Old Spice and Volkswagen have won numerous pencils and lions, and his Super Bowl spot, “The Force” held a Guinness World Record for most shared ad ever.

He recently joined 180LA as a creative director, working on Mitsubishi among other accounts.

In his spare time, he enjoys wearing sweaters and eating soup.
