As a seasoned Senior Creative and Presentation Director with a rich tapestry of experiences spanning over two decades, I bring a depth of expertise and a passion for creativity to every project I undertake. Throughout my career journey, I have honed my craft across various industries, mastering the art of design, brand development, and strategic leadership.

In my current role at Barclays Investment Bank, I am entrusted with the responsibility of leading a dynamic team in the conceptualization and execution of compelling presentations that not only meet but exceed the lofty expectations of our esteemed clients. With a keen eye for detail and an innate ability to push creative boundaries, I have consistently delivered projects featuring advanced graphics, charts, illustrations, and dynamic content at an unparalleled pace. Moreover, I take pride in spearheading project management processes, seamlessly coordinating timelines, resources, and client feedback to ensure the flawless execution of every initiative. My role extends beyond mere project management; I am deeply committed to the mentorship and professional development of junior team members, imparting invaluable insights and fostering a culture of continuous learning and growth.

Prior to my tenure at Barclays, my journey in the realm of design and creative direction led me to Soleus International, where I served as the Design Director. Here, I had the privilege of leading transformative initiatives that revolutionized packaging strategies and brand identities, culminating in substantial revenue growth and market expansion. One of my proudest achievements during this time was the creation of innovative packaging concepts that not only reshaped industry standards but also propelled the Soleusair brand to new heights of recognition and success. My leadership was further underscored by my ability to navigate complex collaborations with third-party vendors, ensuring adherence to project specifications and requirements while fostering strong and enduring relationships.

Before my time at Soleus International, I co-founded HyperDrive Interactive, a trailblazing digital marketing agency where I served as the Creative Director. Here, I played an instrumental role in shaping the agency’s identity and guiding its strategic direction, steering it towards rapid growth and industry prominence. Through strategic business development efforts, I cultivated a diverse clientele that included household names such as Dreamfield’s Pasta, LaRosa’s Family Pizzeria Franchise, and O’Gara Hess and Eisenhardt, to name just a few. My leadership extended beyond the boardroom; I was deeply invested in creating a vibrant and inclusive work environment that fostered collaboration, creativity, and innovation amongst team members.

My journey in the packagingrsa realm began at Lipson Alport Glass & Associates, where I cut my teeth in the world of packaging design. Here, I had the opportunity to work on captivating and informative packaging designs for S.C. Johnson’s array of home cleaning products and food brands, leaving an indelible mark on the industry. Subsequent roles at Northlich further enriched my skill set, providing me with invaluable experience in graphic design, creative strategy, and client management, particularly within the realm of consumer goods and marketing.

Armed with an extensive toolkit that encompasses web development, photography, typography, video editing, and more, I stand poised at the intersection of creativity and strategy, ready to tackle the challenges of tomorrow and elevate brands to unprecedented heights of success. My unwavering commitment to excellence, coupled with a relentless pursuit of innovation, positions me as a trusted partner and a driving force in the ever-evolving landscape of design and brand development.
