"18 years of experience gave me a lot of lesson, how to deal with the jobs, the team and any kind of Clients. From Print Operator to Art Director... from Creative Director to Brand Consultant. And most important I never satisfied with all my works, Always thirsty and hungry about learning and invent new creative communication. Wouldn't mind to start over again of learn something new and Discover new Bright Idea."

The brand is born with a mysterious great story of innovation and secret ingredients of an eccentric identity. It’s connected with a sense of a commitment and value. Intimate with its security, honesty and responsibility.

So yes, brand is your asset, but it’s not yours, it belongs to your consumers.

I believe a brand without philosophy is like a land without a lighthouse, the ships won’t be docking at your land. But just a lighthouse is not gonna do the work. To cut the mustard, the company needs a joyful playground to build, connect and engage with consumers.


The Brand’s Brain
Best Thing since Sliced Bread (a good invention or innovation. A good idea or plan.)

For me, the brand is about relationship, not information. I can’t be satisfied if the brand is just recognizable, I want it to be loved by people, to be more personal than generic, creates a love story than narrative, and most of all I won’t stop until it becomes iconic than just symbolic.

For … years I’ve been living in a creative world that is full of struggle, experimental, innovative and fun. Creating love story with brands and its consumers is the coolest job ever. Forget about being a rock star, because what I do is rocking the world. Researching, brainstorming, strategizing, and conceptualizing are my sandwich filling, I ate it every day. I would go the extra mile to make you blew away and create golden opportunity. If you think what I do is a waste of time, take a look at my portfolio, where the magic happens.
