Programmatic Manager specializing in cross-border media buying and ad tech optimization.
What I'm looking for
I am a Programmatic Manager with extensive experience on both the buy and sell side, having managed a budget exceeding $8 million across 24 countries. I combine strong DSP and SSP expertise with data-driven media planning to maximize ROI for publishers and advertisers.
My background spans senior media buying roles and programmatic management, working with platforms such as DV360, Xandr, Magnite, Adform, Google Ad Manager and various SSPs and DSPs. I am skilled in campaign optimization, budgeting, reporting, and negotiating commercial terms to improve performance.
Organized and reliable, I bring leadership and communication strengths, mentorship experience, and a research-oriented mindset from earlier archival and curatorial roles in contemporary art institutions. I prioritize collaborative problem solving and measurable results in fast-paced ad tech environments.
