Leo Burnett vet A.J. Hassan, who helped spearhead the gender-challenging "#LikeAGirl" campaign, is joining R/GA Chicago as an executive creative director.

Aside from that award-winning pitch for Always, Hassan, who worked at Leo Burnett for 17 years, is also associated with other purpose-driven pitches like #EqualDreams for Esurance in advance of the Supreme Court ruling on marriage equality, and the "Mean Stinks" anti-bullying campaign for Secret.
