About me

I have been working on branded content for the past 10 years. I've grown from Filmmaker to Video Production Manager managing commercial shoots for major brands such as Hyundai, Volvo, Ford, Citroen, Nissan, Microsoft, HP, Clarins, Switzerland Tourism, etc. I have a proven track of successfully managing teams, budgets and schedules transforming projects into profitable advertising campaigns. I am always looking out for new marketing trends and social media content evolution. I always give 100%, ensuring all productions run smoothly with the least stress for those involved. I'm always ready to motivate teams and provide answers, and solutions when managing complex logistics to keep projects on target.
