My name is Nene Chiso Nwaturuocha.

As you can imagine, a name like mine requires a lot of explanation. Upon meeting anyone, I’m prepared to answer followup questions: “What’d you say? Can you repeat that? Okay, one more time.” I typically respond to this interrogation by dramatically sounding out vowels and frantically gesticulating to help them understand.

What I’ve learned from a lifetime of giving pro bono phonetic lessons is that even the most complicated messages can be understood if you can find a way to communicate them simply.

It’s pronounced Nay-Nay (like a horse) Water (you know that one) Oh-Cha (as in “Oh, Chuck!”) Nay-Nay Water-Oh-Cha.

I love copywriting because I get to spend every day doing what I’ve done since I could speak: Finding creative ways to make complex messages easy to understand.

I’m looking for an ACD / Senior Copywriter role that’s heavy on concepting and scriptwriting, with a brand that truly loves storytelling. If that sounds like a match, I’d love to connect.


Five Facts About Me:

  1. I hate watching scary movies, but I love reading scary movie synopses on IMDb. I don’t get it either.

  2. I think in both words and visuals. I started my career as both a graphic designer and a copywriter, so I conceptualize my ideas holistically.

  3. I love to dabble: roller skating, bass guitar, pickleball, pottery … you name it. Being an eternal student is my ethos.

  4. I was a college soccer player. I played center mid even though I hated running. I’ll do anything for the good of the team.

  5. Empathy is my copywriting superpower. I’m passionate about understanding how to make people feel seen. When I write and concept, I always have this in mind.
