How Meranne Behrends from Words From The Woods, Owns It
This week on Own It we’re talking to Meranne Behrends from Words From The Woods. She is a strategist and started Words From The Woods in Portland, Maine, almost nine years ago. Her resume is full of leading strategy and planning for major brands dating back to the mid-2000s. She worked her way through Deutsch / Lowe, Wieden + Kennedy, The VIA Agency and MullenLowe among others.
She spent six years freelancing before formalizing Words From The Woods in 2018..
We loved her perspective as an owner, her stories of being outdoorsy and her brother who she claimed was the better artist. This was such a fun chat. You’ll enjoy getting to know her.
