I'm Mihai Constantinescu, a Creative Director and Art Director with 10+ years of experience in advertising. I've led campaigns across ATL, digital, retail and social for brands like KFC, Coca-Cola, Mastercard, Lidl, Taco Bell and Vodafone. My background in art direction gives me a sharp eye for craft, and I love turning ideas into visually compelling work that resonates with audiences. My approach blends strategic thinking with hands-on craft, and I draw inspiration from teamwork and culture. I believe great creative starts with a solid game plan but thrives on instinct, collaboration, and the courage to break patterns—aiming for work that's relevant, emotionally engaging, and impossible to ignore.
