award categories
These aren’t your everyday marketing and advertising awards.
We don’t want to see the work, know your strategy, or evaluate any performance results. We want to hear about your choices and your life. And how you’ve leveraged the flexibility of freelancing to unlock your passion, your mission, and your harmony.
