Experience

1. Senior Creative Director, Global

   QUAY

   Jul 2025 — Present · San Francisco, CA, US

   Global brand storytelling and campaign work across every consumer touchpoint, built in close cross-functional partnership. I manage the creative team and oversee production and freelance budgets with a lean mindset that protects the work and the timeline. A major focus has been modernizing how we create: integrating AI tools and outside partners into the studio flow so ideas get clearer faster, and execution gets stronger with fewer rounds. That shift reduced asset concept-to-first-review time by 30%, improved delivery speed, and cut rework while keeping the brand cohesive.
