What I'm looking for

I am seeking opportunities that foster creativity and innovation, allowing me to leverage my expertise in influencer marketing to drive impactful campaigns and brand growth.

I am a strategic and data-driven Influencer Marketing Executive with over 10 years of experience leading high-ROI campaigns across global and emerging markets. My journey has been marked by a proven success in scaling creator ecosystems and driving brand transformation for renowned brands such as Coca-Cola, UNICEF, and Viber. As the founder of Black Lotus Media, I have established a cross-border agency that bridges global brands with local creators, achieving significant revenue growth and impactful P&L results.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a strong ability to execute culturally resonant campaigns that engage audiences effectively. I launched and grew my agency from $0 to $100K in just six months, activating cross-border campaigns and monetization for diverse creators. My strategic approach has led to impressive results, including a 25% uplift in app downloads and a 1.2M global reach for a TikTok activation. I am passionate about leveraging data analytics and digital media platforms to drive brand success and create scalable talent management systems.
