I'm Brian Clifford.
Profile
I am an outgoing individual with a point of view on many topics; and, never shy to have a debate. Entertainment, the media industries, and politics are subjects that energize me. As a history buff, I enjoy diving into different time periods and key historical events. Writing scripts, consuming content, and most importantly telling a story has been a part of my life since grammar school. My goal is to leverage my unique perspective and sense of humor in a role that challenges me and further develops my copywriting skills.
