strengths:
Creative Direction
I’m a leader, a creative thinker and a project manager all in one. I’m a steward of brands, a mentor of creatives and a pusher of boundaries. I’ve had years of
experience presenting to and collaborating with clients from companies large and small. I believe that collaboration, curious minds, and kindness are at the core of a successful team. And if you can shut up and listen. You can lead.
Design
I have a deep understanding of all mediums; digital, social, in-store, mobile, video,
print and TV and i’ve successfully developed fresh and engaging campaigns
across multiple platforms from concept to completion. Leading talented teams of
writers, producers, directors and editors along the way.
