Clark Wilson
Clark's a realistic sort of guy, who likes to take a practical approach to everything he does. His recipe for success is: look at a client's business from a 360° perspective, apply some strategic thinking, and create solutions that will produce a favorable return on their investment. He's been in the advertising/marketing business for quite some time now, and he's got this method down to a pretty good science. Honest... he's a wiz at this stuff! It's important for him to work closely with everyone involved on a projectno matter how big or how small. He graduated from USC while working at DJMC Advertising on the McDonald's Restaurants account. And unlike RonaldClark's a real redhead!
He's gained a tremendous amount of national & international experience with clients such as Carl's Jr. Restaurants, Lucky Supermarkets, Malaysia Tourism Counsel, while serving in a senior management position with Saatchi & Saatchi. Finally wanting to do his own thing, he helped start LWA in 1990. Since that time he's provided counsel to clients such as Blue Cross, Harte Hanks, Red Robin Restaurants, Microsoft, Santa Anita Park and Kaiser Permanente and The Aquarium of the Pacific to name a few.
Clark and his wife, Liz, live in Laguna Hills. They love to work together, cook together and travel together. Oh yes... they also have four wonderful children and a dog (ergo the travel!).
Liz Wilson
A transplant from New York, Liz arrived in Southern California and hit the ground running. And while the "New Yorkese" accent is all but gonethe hand gestures are here to stay!
She's manages LWA's client services and business affairs... that means she wears about 12 different hats a day. In her early career days, she worked for a national media/consumer research firm. Then having her fill of research she switched gears and found her place in the Television advertising sales field. She stayed within that industry until the birth of her first son.
After a 5 year retreat from the business world, she came back only to find herself on the ad agency side of the fence, working as an assistant to the General Manager and Research Director for DJMC Advertising/Los Angeles. That is where she met her husband, Clark. Then, out of nowhere, a former associate recruited her back into TV sales for WGN Broadcastingwhere she stayed for the next five years.
After that, and three more kids, Liz had an even harder job running the house and taking care of the family. Then in 1999, she joined LWA on a full-time basis.
