Lisa Mirabile
President/CEO
Lisa Mirabile holds a BFA in Fine Arts from Syracuse University. Her career began at Wunderman Cato Johnson NYC, where she spent 2 years working on American Express and Miller Genuine Draft. With her passion for adventure, Lisa’s career took a turn for the best when she was tapped by Wunderman to help launch the Creative Department for their Latin American office in Miami. Lisa later moved to Ogilvy & Mather and spent the next 5 years traveling through Latin America shooting television commercials.
In 2004, Lisa started Vertigo Media Group, a full-service Marketing Communications firm with a strong focus on brand advertising. Vertigo specializes in branding young companies, along with reinvigorating existing brands. In 2014, Lisa acquired another Long Island agency and merged the two operations nearly tripling VMG’s gross sales. In 2017, Vertigo launched Spanglish, a cross-cultural marketing program to help brands enhance their reach with the growing Hispanic community.
Recognized as an industry expert, Lisa has given many seminars on marketing and delivered addresses to young graduates looking to start their careers in marketing. Dedicated to her community, she has helped raise funds and donated graphic services to foundations such as the LI2-Day Breast Cancer Foundation, The Sepe Foundation, and The Port Washington Library Foundation.
As a mother of two children, Leo 24 and Gianna 22 she spends her spare time cooking, watching baseball and traveling.

Read first-hand testimonials from happy clients who have worked with Lisa and her team.

Lisa and her team at Vertigo truly became our partners. They took the time to learn exactly what it was that we do, why we do it and the nuances that were incredibly important for us as a non-profit that empowers a very diverse group of middle school girls from different school districts on the East End of Long Island. As a non-profit investing in media, it always comes down to driving donations and Vertigo understood this, working diligently to amplify our message and partner with us in really creative ways to fundraise. They helped elevate our annual GivingDay from a few thousand dollars to this past year’s i-tri Give-a-thon which was an all-day live-streamed event raising over $350,000! Having the power of a team behind us, brainstorming creative ideas, elevated us and got us National exposure, such as our piece on The Today Show and Kelly Clarkson! I highly recommend working with Vertigo.

I have been working with Lisa and her team for several years now. The Vertigo team brings many years of knowledge and acumen to any company looking at Vertigo to provide marketing expertise. We’ve experienced it for ourselves in using them for website design, print design & production, photography, video production, media buying… Anyone looking to source areas of marketing for their business or their entire marketing department will always be pleasantly surprised with what Lisa and her team bring to the table.
