Lesly Pyle will change your professional life. She certainly has made mine more rewarding. First as my Creative Assistant at FCB SF, when FCB SF was dominating the world, and for the last several years, as our Creative Ops Director and Copywriter at Baker Street, where Lesly brings her good heart and super human competence to everything she does. She makes everyone she works with better — account people, writers, art directors, producers and especially Chief Creative Officers, helping us all find solutions, catching our miscues, and keeping us all marching forward. She has also become a trusted Copywriter, penning some of our best work, and identifying strategic angles for all of us to consider. I cannot imagine running a Creative Department or an agency without her, and I hope I never have to.”

“When Lesly and I started to work together, I quickly realized she could do anything. No task was too small, no challenge too monumental. Put something in front of her, and she would be driven to get it done, and done well. Naturally, that kind of awesome behavior deserved a nickname, so I gave her one. Her last name is Pyle, and she's driven, so...’Pyledriver’ only made sense. Soon it was shortened to ‘Driver.’ Talented, creative, and driven. That's ‘Driver.’ She's as good as they get.
