Strategic Thinking
I don't just make ads, I decide which ads are worth making. I connect creative to the actual business goal, so every direction I take is built to move a number, not just look good.
Creative Strategy for brands
As your creative strategist, I'll play a key role in developing creative assets that drive engagement, sales, and brand awareness.
Converting Static Ads
Every ad here starts with research, not design. I dig into the audience until I find the exact trigger that stops their scroll, then build the creative around it. Sometimes that's clean, crisp and modern. Sometimes it's raw, real and heartfelt. The look always follows the strategy, never the other way around.

Scroll Stopping Video
Static gets attention. Video holds it. I write and direct short-form video for the feed, hook-first and native, engineered to sell rather than just look pretty.
Script Writing
Scripts that land in the first three seconds. Native to the feed, engineered to sell, not just to look pretty.
Trend Ahead
I track what's moving in the market and adapt it to your brand, so your content feels current instead of catching up.
Test more, scale faster
Did you know that only 1 in 100 ads turn into whales? I spin up multiple angles and variations so you can test creative volume and double down on the winners.
Script Witing
A/B scripts that attract the right customer and help your brand stand out from competitors every time.
Skills
Creative Testing & Iteration
I treat creative like a system: hypothesis, test, learn, scale. I know what to double down on and what to kill fast, so budget flows toward what's working instead of what we hoped would work.
Data & Analytical Literacy
I read the metrics that matter — hook rate, thumbstop, CTR, CVR, CPA, ROAS — and turn them into the next creative move. I can tell you why an ad won or lost, not just that it did.
Direct-Response Copywriting
I write to convert: hooks that stop the scroll, offers that land, CTAs that close. Every line earns the next three seconds of attention.
Script Writing (A/V)
I write full two-column A/V scripts — visuals and action on one side, VO and dialogue on the other — so creators, editors, and clients see exactly how the ad plays before a single frame is shot.
Brief-Writing & Creative Direction
I turn strategy into briefs so clear the team can't miss. From hook to CTA, shot list to talent direction, I make sure what gets built matches what I intended.
Research & Competitive Intelligence
I mine customer psychology and competitor ad libraries to find the angle nobody's using yet. I spot the whitespace before the market crowds into it.
Platform Expertise
I build creative around how each platform actually behaves, especially Meta — formats, placements, and what the algorithm rewards. I work with the channel's mechanics, not against them.
Communication & Collaboration
I keep creators, editors, designers, and media buyers pulling in one direction. And I can walk a client through the why behind the work, not just hand it over.
Design-Tool Fluency
I'm fluent in Figma and Adobe, so I can execute when I need to and direct with precision when I don't. I speak the designer's language because I've done the work myself.
AI-Tool Fluency
I use AI to move faster — surfacing winning patterns, generating variations, and building creative at volume. The tools handle the grunt work; the judgment stays mine.
Funnel & eCommerce Thinking
I understand where an ad sits in the journey and what job it has to do at that stage. Cold traffic and a warm retargeting audience get different creative, on purpose.
Project Management
I keep production moving without dropping the creative bar. Fast, organized, and consistent — week after week, not just when it's easy.
Consistent Output
I ship a high volume of quality creative on a reliable cadence. You get momentum, not one great ad followed by a dry spell.

Who I am
About me
Most creative people know one slice of this business really well. I've worked all of them.
Over 12 years, I've sat in nearly every seat: design, strategy, copy, campaigns, and the performance side where the results actually get counted. That is the difference. When I build an ad, I'm not guessing at what the media buyer needs or what the brand is trying to protect. I've done those jobs, so the creative comes out informed from the first draft.
I'm also genuinely obsessed with this, and it shows in the work. I'm the one digging into why one ad outperforms another after everyone else has logged off, because I want yours to be the one winning. I don't hand over something that merely looks good. I hand over creative built to perform, and built to beat whatever your competition is running.
Art and science, both sides. That is where I work best, and where I make brands hard to ignore.

Keren is an excellent Graphic Designer, helping me with a whole brand revamp, new logo, brand guide and more! They always went above and beyond, met every deadline and consistently delivered high quality results. Keren also took on extra tasks outside of "Graphic Design" such as copy updates, content review and assisted in creating marketing assets. I would highly recommend Keren for anyone needing a consistent executor on graphic and content needs.
