United Arab EmiratesWhat I'm looking for
At CROUD, I lead digital media strategy across MENA markets, turning client objectives into acquisition, engagement, and app-growth plans. I've managed multi-million-dollar paid media investments across Google, Meta, Snapchat, and other platforms.
My data-led strategies delivered 370% year-over-year app monthly active user growth, 11% growth in Share of Brand Search, and 44% growth in Share of Traffic. I've also reduced CPC by 50% and CPM by 38%, generating approximately $1.3M and $822K in media cost savings respectively.
