Hello. I am an Executive Creative Director at Zulu Alpha Kilo.
I have worked alongside many talented people in both Toronto, CAN, and London, UK, and have been a part of over 400 industry awards, including international recognition from Cannes, One Show, D&AD, Clios, and Webbys. Also, Ogilvy Canada won more Effie Canada effectiveness awards than any other agency during my time there.
I have been ranked amongst the top creatives in the country multiple times by Strategy magazine and have an MBA from the Rotman School of Management, University of Toronto. (Advertising is a business after all.)
RECENT ACCOMPLISHMENTS:
Our Dove "Courage is Beautiful" campaign, celebrating front-line healthcare workers, launched in Canada and was adapted for 15 global markets, achieved 2 billion+ earned PR views, made the cover of NY Times, and was the most awarded Health & Beauty campaign in the world in 2020. It has also donated $5 million+ in badly-needed supplies to battle against COVID-19.
