Another piece of Bay Area-related news, you say? Well, it seems like it’s just that kind of week. San Francisco indie shop Eleven has welcomed seven new folks to its creative department, which of course is led by CCO Mike McKay, formerly of BBDO SF and Saatchi & Saatchi LA. Among those included in the totally informal shot above are creative director Jack Harding, who worked with McKay at BBDO and helped lead creative on Comcast SportsNet and Mars among other accounts, senior integrated art director Sara Worthington, who joins Eleven after spending two years as a senior AD at Goodby, as well as senior copywriter and Cutwater/Deutsch alum Ray Connolly.

The 13-year-old Eleven currently counts clients including Apple, Virgin America, Union Bank and AAA.
