Kohl Forsberg
Executive Creative Director
Leo Burnett Toronto

TORONTO, CANADA // Kohl is an Executive Creative Director at Leo Burnett Toronto.

In a desperate attempt to not do construction anymore, he got into advertising 10 years ago. Some cool moments since include seeing his work trend #1 and #2 on BuzzFeed at the same time, hearing J.K. Simmons read a poem he wrote, getting coverage from The Independent, Fast Company and Vanity Fair to name a few and winning at Cannes, D&AD, The Webby’s, One Show and Clios.

Mostly, he's just trying to make stuff people talk about. And currently, he leads the creative in Canada on Pizza Hut, Kellogg’s, Buick/GMC, Enbridge and the Smucker’s portfolio which includes brands like Milk-Bone, Robin Hood flour, Uncrustables, the list goes on.

In his spare time he likes gossiping with his wife, trying to make his friends laugh and doesn’t like writing about himself.
