Summary
Producer and Creative with 10+ years of experience leading global productions across film, branded content, and marketing campaigns. Proven track record managing multi-million-dollar budgets, cross-functional teams, and international projects for tech brands and agencies. I combine cinematic storytelling with operational rigor to deliver projects that drive brand awareness, sales enablement, and measurable ROI. Originally from Europe, I built my foundation in film and creative production across international markets before moving to the United States to expand my work in branded content and technology-driven storytelling. This transition has allowed me to bring a global perspective to projects while working closer to the innovation ecosystems shaping the future of tech and media.
