At 16, I started my design, marketing, and multimedia company. While attending high school, I was an apprentice in a Manhattan ad agency for four years. I was fortunate to have studied under the President of the agency, who was originally from Grey Advertising, and Doyle Dane Bernbach. The apprenticeship entailed attending school every other week, traveling into the city alternate weeks, and attending night school.

My foundation led me to an enriched professional journey integrating technology’s dynamism with brand creative excellence. My career trajectory is punctuated by decisive endeavors, where I’ve gathered elite digital teams to actualize innovative strategies, optimize customer experiences, and propel brands to leadership pedestals.
