What I'm looking for

Looking for a team that constantly ship. A place where I can continue my growth in brand, design and strategy.

Creative Strategy Executive with 15+ years building and leading multidisciplinary teams, launching brands and shaping 360° experiences across CPG, fashion, hospitality, real estate, education, private equity and tech.

15 years of experience aligning design thinking with business goals. I’ve shipped atoms and electrons across diverse industries, engaging audiences around the world. My work is driven by a passion for uncovering the emotional connection between people and brands—and expanding those moments into meaningful experiences that move people to take action.

This is my Why.

Lately my work involves integrating AI LLMs into existing and new workflows. AI has been instrumental for creative work and strategy planning; allowing teams to identify the patterns in the market, research, tracking and audience behaviour. Building workflows and systems that let small teams produce at a higher scale and speed, across project management, design production and creative output.
