I have over 20 years of experience in content creation, media, advertising, public relations, and marketing. Currently, I help marketers and founders of SMB and startups in creative and tech industries find and choose creative talents, who can accurately solve their content tasks.
I have launched 2 international media brands in Ukraine - the oldest fashion magazine Harper’s Bazaar and an iconic lifestyle magazine Esquire, and relaunched 1 local retail brand - a city legend department store TSUM Kyiv. I have built communication systems from scratch in 3 companies, as well as a marketing department in 2 companies.
