curriculum vitae

position desired : art director / studio manager

Available for freelance or permanent position, hit me up.

I'm a nomad, problem solver, artistic storyteller creative with workaholic tendencies fueled by tech wizardry with a smile.

I have spent 15 years working in Middle East. I'm now back home looking for new challenges taking a new step in my carrier.

Throughout my experiences working in different agencies, I have had the good fortune of meeting, working with, learning from and eating a lot of pizza deliveries with a bunch of truly great inspiring people. Together, we created breakthrough kick ass brilliant work that has won awards for the agency and clients alike. That's not the important part, my work has always worked. Brand metrics and client objective are a core part of my story along with innovation, consumer understanding and clever story telling.

My passion is in digital and all things design but I try not to pigeon hole myself and concentrate on just one type of category. I would rather focus on the bigger picture: to create smart, targeted and well crafted communication.
