What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a growth-focused digital leadership role where I can lead client relationships and omni-channel strategy—especially across APAC—turning priorities into measurable results through cross-functional teams.

I’m a senior account and growth leader with 14+ years of experience across account leadership, digital transformation, business development, and integrated media strategy across Southeast Asia and APAC. I translate growth priorities into integrated digital strategies and execution plans.

At WPP - GroupM, I led digital acceleration for Jollibee Foods Corporation (JFC), supported with an annual media investment of ~ USD 40M-50M. I managed a 40+ member cross-functional team with 2 direct reports and served as senior client lead, helping drive account renewal and delivering 9/10 client ratings.

Previously as Head of Business Development, APAC at MediaDonuts (now Aleph), I led APAC business development for mobile app growth and digital media solutions across Southeast Asia. I helped Maya (PH) scale new and active user growth to become the second-largest e-wallet in the Philippines, strengthened strategic relationships with G-Cash and Maya, supported regional partnerships (including Twitter partnerships with top 5 banks in Thailand), and helped TikTok (Bytedance) build its client base in the Philippines as their dedicated agency right across 2020-2023.
