Jessica Waites

Copywriter/Editor

United States of America

When I was deciding on a college degree, I knew I wanted to be in an industry that was creative and exciting. I graduated from the University of Houston with a Bachelor’s in Communications, and soon after, I got my first copywriting job at a Houston-based Advertising Agency. It was exactly what I wanted to do in my career! Over the past 10 years, I have honed my skills in writing for radio, TV, web, direct mail, social media and print. During this time, I have also developed proofreading skills that come from years of writing, rewriting, editing and re-editing. My ultimate goal is for the “voice” of the client to come through in my writing. I strive to identify the exact mood, message and concept of each individual campaign in order to produce the best results!

Extra storage space is a must for most families, especially in the kids' room! But instead of hauling in an over-sized cabinet that may not fit the size or match the theme of your room, you can find storage space that's not only visually appealing, but practical and useful as well.

Kevin Bacon just recently recreated two of his famous dance scenes on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, making all Footloose fans smile and sigh with nostalgia.

Attack of the 100-Something Remakes - Malone Media Group

Right now, there are a slew of movie remakes in the works. While there's nothing inherently wrong with taking a story and retelling it in a different way, should we (the audience) demand to see more "New" and less "Re-Do"?
