About

I am a Creative Leader focused on vision, innovation, and development across activewear and lifestyle brands. I blend leadership, business acumen, and hands-on design to drive brand strategy, product development, UX, and branding in agile or lean environments, evangelizing a holistic design approach to meet client objectives and conceived vision.

My track record includes shaping brand identities, driving design KPI, and building cohesive teams across multiple regions. I excel at translating business needs into compelling campaigns, managing end-to-end projects from concept to launch, and mentoring talent through hands-on coaching and team development.
