About
I am a creative director focused on delivering smart, human-centric concepts that can positively change the world. I want to transform the advertising industry into a better, more inclusive, equal, mindful and diverse place.
I help to build sustainable brands on a genuine foundation, giving a new generation of consumers real communication value. I work with multidisciplinary teams to deliver the best quality on every project, establishing trust-based, long-term relationships with clients.
As a leader, I encourage creatives to develop concepts that bring more common sense to the industry and purpose-driven work to the world. As a creative, I use advertising to proliferate disruptive positive work. I don't generate ads, but I think of bold, provoking and fun ideas that can evoke emotion, leaving a mark.
Having worked at agencies across the globe, I am a true global citizen. I have launched creative unicorns at agencies such as Ogilvy & Mather APAC & EMEA, JAMI, Wunderman Singapore, Friends Moscow (Droga5), dentsuACHTUNG!, Boomerang and have worked with high-end brands such as adidas, Nike, Adobe, KPN, Porsche, Kimberly-Clark, PepsiCo, Google, Heineken, Epica et al.
While working worldwide, I have also won the most prestigious international, regional and local awards, including Cannes Lions, D&AD, Epica Awards, Eurobest, New York Festival et al.
