TORONTO, CANADA // Todd Mackie is a wannabe-professional-fisherman who had to rely on his fallback plan, which led him into a career in advertising. He started with the bigger shops in Toronto, Cossette, DDB and BBDO before venturing out into new waters. In 2020, he left to start his own agency, Broken Heart Love Affair, with 4 other partners. He’s had a good run, winning a bunch at Cannes, landing a whack load of other International and National awards, none of which his parents have heard of, but they are still proud of him. If you follow him on Instagram, you will see him holding up his prized possessions, all of which are trophy fish. He has no idea where his awards are.
