As a creative director, I owned and established production roadmaps while overseeing graphic design and motion design projects. I also played a crucial role in cultural shifts within agencies, prioritizing diversity, inclusion, employee experience, and talent retention. My creative talents have been recognized with multiple Telly Awards for various initiatives and an Emmy for Creative Direction and Motion Design Animation for the 2021 Tokyo Olympics.
