Whitney Yando is a Group Creative Director at 72andSunny New York. She strives to help brands 'walk their walk' when it comes to their presence in the world. With a portfolio ranging from immersive art installations to cinematic films, her copywriting background guides clients to communicate in memorable, breakthrough ways. She describes herself as "extremely online," as evident by her ability to recap extensive internet drama at the drop of a dime.

Whitney and her team have created culturally relevant work for Google over the past three years – tapping into entertainment properties and sports leagues to connect with today’s audiences.

She strives to be a creative leader of empowerment. Wanting to be the most curious person in the room, she invites her creatives to pursue what makes them most excited and describes her job as ‘getting everything else out of the way for them.’

Whitney is honored to have created award winning work recognized by the Cannes Lions, the Clios, AICP, One Show, the Gerety Awards, and the Webbys. She’s particularly proud of her work on a pro bono project advocating for abortion rights in the US, which was named as one of Fast Company’s World Changing Ideas in 2024.
