## About

```text
At Kenvue, I lead a 20-member design team delivering Graphic Design Intents across NA, EMEA and APAC for brands including Johnson's, Neutrogena and Listerine. I built scalable packaging systems, templates and workflows that cut delivery timelines 25%.

At Unigage, I led a 15+ person creative team across five accounts and standardized the studio design system, shortening concept-to-approval cycles 30%. At VIRTUE Worldwide, I directed brand design for Johnnie Walker, Coca-Cola, Bacardi and Puma across APAC markets.

Earlier, I worked across Canada and India on brand and campaign design at Publicis Canada and J. Walter Thompson Worldwide. At Lowe Lintas and Partners, I art directed the full Reynolds Trimax redesign across packaging, advertising and in-store promotion.
