MONIKA JANSEN
Head Kick-Ass Copywriter and Strategist
Way back in 7th grade, my English teacher Mrs. Gildard told me I should be a writer. That advice stuck in my head, and eventually I followed it.
I help my clients find their voice and share valuable content. It all starts with clearly and concisely stating what you do and why that matters to your ideal client – in plain English. From there, I create content that your ideal client is looking for and that showcases your knowledge, perspectives and expertise. In short, I make you sound like “you,” and I help you form connections with your audience. Oh, and we have fun along the way (expect a lot of laughter when you work with me).
In the winter, expect a few OOO while I snowboard. The rest of the year, I finish work early so I can go hiking or just hang out with my family, friends and dog Marley.

STACY MARINO
Copywriting Queen
I feel like writing has always been a part of my life, though much of it remains hidden from the world in notebooks and computer files waiting to become books off my bucket list or on my blog. Most of my personal writing focuses on processing the world around me with a snarky and relatable viewpoint. Professionally, I spent about a decade writing and editing information assurance policy for government clients.
When I’m not supporting our amazing Jansen Communications clients, I’m focused on my handmade product business that I began early 2014 and other entrepreneurial ventures. I’m based in Loudoun County, Virginia where my life is centered on being the best mom to the most amazing daughter and sweetest kitty anyone could dream of.
GREG VOORNAS
Senior Copywriter and Token Male
Most of my wacky career has been spent in the big-agency world – Ogilvy & Mather, Foote Cone & Belding, Bozell, Young & Rubicam, Wells Rich Greene, Dailey & Associates.
I’ve been lucky enough to write for a ton of great clients – from IBM and Microsoft to Honda, Mazda, Mattel, Chase Manhattan Bank, even the U.S. Postal Service. B2B. B2C. B2Whatever.
My approach is simple: make it interesting. Whether it’s a postcard or business card, TV campaign or social media campaign, make it interesting. As the great David Ogilvy once told a client: “You cannot bore people into buying your product.” Bingo.
STEPHANIE KALKA
Minister of Assistance
I’m a storyteller, an artist, and a collaborative communicator. As a lifelong learner, I’m always growing my skill set. I find creative ways to solve problems and organize all the things. You may get an email from me every now and then to clarify a point for Monika, but should you need assistance, I’m happy to help.
I write for entertainment, mainly my own: blog posts, stories, and articles. (My mother-in-law loves my thank-you notes.)
When I’m not at my laptop, I can be found herding cats and haranguing my children. Only kidding. The cats are a lost cause. I find balance in writing, drawing, and creating music.
