Short scope: A true New Yorker. Unprofessional ice hockey player. Anthony Bourdain disciple. Father to a broodingly stoic bulldog. And Senior Copywriter at Saatchi & Saatchi. Any questions?
Inside the agency walls: I champion ideas that are pioneering, adventure or automotive-inspired, and—when the brief allows—laugh-inducing. Fueled by a constant (and delusional) need to learn every quirky detail of life and lore, I bring a wealth of weirdness and research to the table. Whether it be web copy, social-driven, broadcast, print or experiential, let’s get involved.
Outside the agency walls: If there’s a window for action, I’m jumpin’. Running half marathons, kayaking rapids upstate, or traveling the big ol’ globe to feel tiny—it’s all in pursuit of good grub, growth and stories to tell. The passion I see in others drives my own; gleaning insight from people and brands whose green light seldomly turns red.

Recommendation
“We had the pleasure of hosting Alex Salzano as a Copywriter intern in Q4 of 2020. Alex and his art partner were extremely helpful to us as we closed out the year. He primarily worked on our Facebook account, specifically Oculus. Once he started on Facebook the team did not want to let him go which is a very good sign. He was instrumental in working with a fast-paced demanding client, assisting the team concepting, executing and to keep on deadline. He is a hard worker and extremely passionate about our industry. Any agency or team would be lucky to have him join their ranks.”
