John Converse Townsend

I’m a creative and social strategist with a lifelong passion for storytelling and social justice. Currently with Mission North, helping innovative companies better use social media to elevate their profiles and reach new audiences.

Most recently, I worked with McCann XBC in New York to develop full-serve digital and marketing communications for client Mastercard. Previously, I covered smart solutions to social problems as a writer, social media and video producer, and campaign strategist for Fast Company and Ashoka: Innovators for the Public. I also cover the NBA as a credentialed journalist and special correspondent to ESPN and produce audio shorts for the BBC.
