Eduardo Cortes

I've worked on some of the finest brands, in almost every category, at some of the world's most respected advertising agencies. I started my career in Mexico City, where I spent a decade working at McCann-Erickson, Leo Burnett and Lintas. I created award-winning campaigns for blue-chip clients like Bank of America, Mitsubishi Motors, KFC, Weinerschnitzel, Pepsi, Kellogg's, Gillette, L'Oreal, Vons, Nestle, Toshiba, ToysRus, The Gas Company and Luftansa, among others.

Most recently, I collaborated in the creative development efforts for First 5 LA, and Best Start in Los Angeles. I have also contributed a strategic perspective that has resulted in positive change for other organizations like the California Department of Health Services / Office of Women’s health.

Some of my awards for excellence in advertising include Beldings, Addys Radio Mercury Awards, Fiap, How Magazine design annual, Print Magazine design annual, New York Festivals, World Class Copy Awards, and Círculo de Oro.

I graduated from the University of Texas, School of Journalism, with a degree in Advertising and Public Relations.
