Anastasios Lessis
Senior Copywriter / SPOT JWT Athens
DOB: 22nd of March 1974. According to Wikipedia, no significant event occurred on the day. I knew there was something dodgy bout this site. Birthplace: Athens, Greece, the same birthplace as democracy, philosophy and over-the-top-acting, way before Jim Carrey came along. FF>> 25 years: Having completed my MSc course in Advertising PR and Communication in Belfast, I drove down south (an achievement on its own since it was done on the left side of the road) and tried my luck where everybody was trying his at the time, Dublin. After 5 years of extreme number-crunching at Initiative Dublin as a Research Manager, I finally got to pursue my dream: A generous pay-cut and the promise of an exciting brand new career with long hours, mind-boggling tasks and certainly no media freebies at Irish International BBDO as a copywriter. Two years later I decided to move back and joined JWT Athens where I still work for clients such as Vodafone, Vivartia, MINOAN LINES, Diageo and Melissa among others.
