Maclean Jackson
Creative Director + Writer

Hello, I'm Maclean Jackson, a writer and creative director living in Brooklyn and working at Wieden+Kennedy NY. In my free time, I enjoy the S/S Polo Ralph Lauren lifestyle and lifting weights. I also make short films and art books with my friend Stephen under the name, Twin BroBro.

Before advertising, I was editor-in-chief of Mass Appeal magazine. Before that I was a bouncer in New York City. I'm a graduate of the Wieden+Kennedy 12 school and the University of Oregon. But most importantly, I was born and raised in Berkeley, California.
