The Optimist Team
We’re an agency built for the future. Digital, remote, distributed.
But we’re more.
A collective. A hybrid agency. The Optimist model.
Call it whatever you want.
We’re the best parts of hiring an agency, the best parts of working with incredible freelancers—with the downsides of neither.
Each member of our team is a full-time, professional freelancer with years of experience delivering breakthrough work for brands just like yours.
Each client team is a hand-selected team of those expert creatives.
No juniors. No interns. No revolving cast of writers who can never learn your freaking tone of voice.
Here are the faces who make it happen.
