Kim Ledgerwood . . .

Copywriter

Kim Ledgerwood’s love of words and talent for using them goes back as far as she can remember and has earned her the nickname “the word nerd.” Fresh out of college and searching for a career path, she wanted to put her creativity to good use, but didn’t want to be a starving artist. The obvious solution? Advertising! Today, she holds a Master’s Degree in Advertising from the University of Tennessee and has more than 12 years’ of experience as a professional copywriter, including five years at one of the southeast’s largest full-service ad agencies, The Tombras Group, followed by many years of freelancing. Yes, she’s won countless awards, but—more importantly—her critical- and creative-thinking skills combine to produce copy that gets results.

Kim also has three children, so she doesn’t have any spare time. If she did, she’d love to curl up with a good book, work a hard crossword puzzle or maybe even sneak in a pedicure.
