Fashion luxury creative director turning concepts into culturally sharp brand identities.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Creative Director and Art Director with 7+ years of experience building visual identities and leading creative production across fashion, luxury, and digital platforms. I specialize in translating raw concepts into culturally sharp visual languages—from editorial campaigns to complete brand systems.
I’ve owned end-to-end creative direction for luxury brands across all digital touchpoints, including content production (photo/video shoots, reels, brand visuals) and performance-driven social strategies. I’ve engineered high-conversion visual hooks and thumbnails that boosted CTR by 20% while steering growth across YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and LinkedIn.
Earlier, I founded and scaled an independent visual media project to 270K+ followers organically, owning full creative and strategic direction across content, branding, growth strategy, publishing, analytics, and community management. I later exited the asset successfully, then continued deepening my research through PhD work.
Before creative leadership roles, I built strong design and platform foundations as a web designer, graphic designer, and social media manager—developing brand identities, UI/UX, logos, illustrations, marketing assets, and campaign visuals. Today, I bring that hands-on craft, plus creative strategy and production rigor, to every brand story I help shape.
