Davis Elen Advertising

Laughing and crying over a commercial for a pack of gum was Cloey Olkowski’s first exposure to the power of advertising in high school, and from there her journey to multicultural digital media supervisor at DE came naturally. She’s grateful to contribute to Davis Elen’s impactful multicultural strategy, which stems from her team’s collaborative spirit. Outside the office, her happy place is her grandparents’ lakehouse in Chautauqua, NY where she finds peace on the dock with her two bernedoodles.

In appreciation for the best owner community in the world, Davis Elen designed these ultra-limited Toyota SoCal Owners jackets, complete with retro racing stripe details. You don’t need a jacket to prove you’re part of the Toyota SoCal community, but damn, these are 🔥

There’s only one designer in the world who can say his finger appears on Johnny Depp's hand in a Pirates of the Caribbean poster: our own account-trotting designer, Carlo Llacar. He designed movie posters straight out of art school, then worked with Audi and Nissan before joining DE on Toyota. When Carlo’s not buying a bougie bagel in town, he’s mountaineering and fishing out of his Subaru Outback like the John Muir of Silver Lake.

This month we attended the Temecula Balloon and Wine Festival with the Toyota SoCal team 🎈 🍷 Our downtown Los Angeles office hosted a beautiful baby shower for our Account Executive, Molly Davis. Congrats, Molly! 💕 The Social team gathered for a summit in Los Angeles and took on the challenge of an escape room as a team-building activity. They escaped with great memories and stronger bonds! 🔓🗝️

Cheers to a month filled with unforgettable moments! ✨ We had the pleasure of hosting an intimate happy hour for our clients against the backdrop of Barcelona's skyline during the McDonald’s Worldwide Convention in Spain. We were honored to join the McDonald’s Pride Employee Benefit Network as they were recognized for their amazing support of The Center on Halsted: A leading non-profit based in Chicago that is dedicated to advancing the welfare of the local LGBTQ+ community. From a thrilling opening night at the Phillies game to catching the Padres in action, every moment was a home run. Cody Guerrero even brought his daughter to her very first Lakers game, all thanks to a lucky DE raffle win! 🏀

Living in the spotlight this month is our gracious Management Supervisor on the Lively team, Gracelyn Cammareri Stanisic. She keeps it light while keeping an eagle eye on every detail for both the team and the client. When the weekend hits, she enjoys the great outdoors, live music, and time with her husband and two-year-old Labradoodle. She's a connoisseur foodie, but being Italian, there's a special place in her heart for pizza.🍕
