Career Summary
My philosophy lies at the intersection of brand engagement and brand building.
In an era where short-form content is on the rise, I recognize that storytelling is evolving to prioritize immersive 'vibes' over complete narratives. I am particularly excited about the potential of AI to challenge traditional storytelling methods and inspire innovative solutions.
