Allison Rude
Copywriter

Allison Rude

Allison Rude became a copywriter at Modernista! in March 2008. Before she was a copywriter, she wasn't one. Instead, she disguised herself as an Account Supervisor for Cadillac for a full year before. And worked at Arnold on Jack Daniel's and Celebrity Cruises for three years before that. She also did some freelance writing here and there to help Zipcar find a voice. Her web habits are erratic at best, but she can most often be found at wimp.comffffound.com, gizmodo.com, and consumerist.com.
