(I’m on the right)

Hey, I’m Burk Smyth.


I’m a copywriter and content manager based in the DMV. You can check out my my resume here.

I’m currently a writer at Navy Federal Credit Union in Vienna, where I work on several value streams across the business.

Before that, I was at WHITE64 (since renamed to Worst Kept Secret) in Tysons, where I was the lead copywriter on PenFed Home. I also worked on Metro, United Federal Credit Union, and more.

I was the lead copywriter on the PlayStation Esports account at Jellyfish, working on everything from social copywriting and scripts to ideation, social analytics, creative production, and YouTube management. I was the highlight producer for our Evo Lounge show at Evo 2022 and the talent and booking producer for PlayStation at Evo 2023.

I’ve also worked on search, social and CRM copy for Spotify, BISSELL and Camping World, written countless blogs for HOKA, Sanuk, and Teva, and created ads for Google using AI.
