Cherisse Thurab

I’m a Canadian Creative Director, Designer and multidisciplinary creative with 15+ years of experience across advertising, in-house creative, digital and brand environments in North America, Europe and Asia.

I’ve led creative and design for global brands including TD Bank, Prudential Financial, Marriott, Microsoft, Virgin, BT, Rogers, Nestlé and PGA TOUR, working across brand strategy, art direction, integrated campaigns, digital experiences, content, social, UX/UI and experiential work.

My strength is bringing together strategic thinking, strong visual direction and hands-on creative execution — shaping ideas from concept through to polished, effective work across every touchpoint. I’ve led teams, collaborated with multidisciplinary partners and worked directly with clients and stakeholders to build brands and experiences that are distinctive, thoughtful and commercially relevant.

I’m also deeply interested in emerging technology and AI, with hands-on experience developing AI-assisted creative workflows, prompting systems and new ways of working that improve both creative output and efficiency.

Today, I work across creative direction, brand and digital strategy, art direction, design, content and experience — particularly for brands in hospitality, travel, wellness, lifestyle and culture.

I’m open to senior remote opportunities including Creative Director, Associate Creative Director, Senior Art Director, Creative Lead and multidisciplinary creative leadership roles.
