Multimedia art director with 10 years experience across global brands.

I have a diverse background in the creative industry, spanning roles such as Creative Lead, Art Director, Creative Producer, Web Designer and Developer, and Visual Designer. My experience showcases a strong track record of delivering successful campaigns and managing creative teams.

As a Creative Lead at Best Buy Canada, I directed multiple high-profile campaigns, including the largest holiday campaign, "Make Holiday Happen." I collaborated with cross-functional teams from concept to implementation and empowered senior creatives to develop innovative solutions. I also oversaw the development of corporate brand standards and delivered creative solutions that met communication and business objectives.

During my time as a Creative Producer at WeCanNet Multimedia, I oversaw art/creative direction and production of long-form videos for various clients. I managed regularly-scheduled productions for YouTube channels and successfully revived the CanWoman channel while refreshing the visual tone of the CanMen channel. I also led the rebranding of four YouTube portfolio channels.

At Dentsu Aegis Network, as an Art Director, I was responsible for all creative design and execution for high-end luxury brands. I crafted social media marketing campaigns, showcased luxury experiences through engaging videos, and consistently delivered exceptional results to demanding luxury clients.

As an Art Director at Ogilvy, I designed and delivered locally-relevant print and digital creative for Colgate-Palmolive across the APAC markets. I worked within a creative team, collaborating on concept/design treatments and infographics, while maintaining the client's brand image and producing results to the agency's high standards.

My earlier experiences include roles as a Web Designer and Developer at Cardinal Points Advertising, where I worked on digital design projects, and as a Junior Web Developer at Bensimon Byrne in Toronto. Additionally, I had a Visual Designer internship at on.cc in Hong Kong.

Overall, my experience highlights my expertise in art direction, campaign management, team leadership, branding, and delivering creative solutions for a diverse range of clients in the technology, entertainment, luxury, and advertising industries.

My most relevant education is a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) degree in Image Arts, New Media from Ryerson University. This program provided me with a strong foundation in various aspects of new media, combining artistic expression with technological innovation. The coursework focused on areas such as digital imaging, interactive media, video production, and web design. Through this program, I gained valuable skills and knowledge in multimedia storytelling, visual communication, and digital creativity, which have been instrumental in my professional career in the creative industry.
