About me

I'm a globally acclaimed multidisciplinary hybrid Creative Director and international advertising judge with over 15 years of experience in communications for the biggest brands around the world with main focus on new technologies in advertising and impactful executions.

I had a privilege to learn and master the creative craft under the best and most awarded Executive Creative Directors and CCO's coming from prestigious agencies such as 72andsunny, AKQA, Leo Burnett, TBWA, Saatchi & Saatchi, FCB, Razorfish, and Publicis and put this knowledge to life extensively while living in Dubai, London and Zurich and working with Middle East, Europe, Asia and all the way from New York to California.

My work has been featured in many professional magazines, such as Adweek, Adage, Campaign Magazine, DesignTAXI, Adobe Magazine and many more. I also had an honor of being ranked as one of the top 5 Creative Directors worldwide in the prestigious Creativepool rankings.
Currently pursuing PhD in the area of digital creativity.
