Senior design strategist transforming hospitality brands with generativeAI-powered visual systems.
What I'm looking for
I’m a senior design strategist with 25 years of visual excellence, focused on turning brand intent into high-performing visual systems across physical and digital environments. I lead with a quiet ego and a relentless focus on business results.
In my current role as Visual Strategy & Brand Lead, I orchestrate experiential branding and visual identity for luxury hospitality brands across Europe and the Americas. I pioneered Synthetic Production (GenerativeAI) to accelerate moodboarding and high-fidelity visualization, reducing conceptualization times by 40%, and I’ve helped transform hotel assets into Narrative Environments that increased brand engagement by 35% and earned international recognition.
Previously, as a Senior Performance Creative at Craft Worldwide (McCann Group), I led high-stakes digital campaign visual execution for major brands, emphasizing digital performance and high-conversion assets. I implemented Variation Thinking for Instagram and Display campaigns, delivering 50+ complex projects with technical compliance, and I managed localization and transcreation for the Spanish market while maintaining brand equity.
Earlier in my career as a Senior Art Director, I ran end-to-end design lifecycles for major accounts and specialized in data storytelling and infographic design. I also led digital design departments, supervising art direction and motion graphics for high-budget launches—carrying the same operational discipline into my ongoing hybridAI-Adobe workflows since 2022.
