• Proven experience leading digital-first campaigns across platforms: desktop, mobile, social, and display.
• A standout portfolio showcasing a wide range of creative work—from concept through execution—for high-profile brands.
• Strong skills in art and copy direction, with the ability to lead both disciplines collaboratively.
• Expert proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite, especially Photoshop and Illustrator.
