What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead integrated advertising and visual identity work, partner with stakeholders and senior leadership, and mentor creative teams—delivering brand-consistent end-to-end campaigns across digital, print, and OOH.

I’m an Associate Creative Director / Art Director with 10+ years of integrated advertising experience, focused on turning creative strategy into brand-consistent visual identities. I thrive on delivering excellence across digital, print, and OOH by owning concept-to-delivery work end to end.

I spearhead and mentor cross-functional teams of designers, copywriters, and creative professionals, aligning creative output with client business objectives and brand vision. In senior roles, I’ve directed photoshoots, video productions, and digital content creation, while reviewing and elevating junior designers’ work to raise the bar for creative rigor.

From earlier art direction through graphic design, I’ve developed a strong foundation in typography and layout, infographics, illustrations, and original campaign collateral. I love collaborating with stakeholders and creative strategists to build integrated campaign solutions—while keeping design standards, quality, and timelines tight.
