• Create clear and compelling creative decks to communicate ideas internally and to clients.

• Present ideas confidently on client and internal calls, articulating the thought and strategy behind the work.

• Work closely with account management, design, content, and production teams to take ideas from brief to execution.

• Incorporate feedback accurately while maintaining the core creative thought and quality of output.

• Manage multiple projects and deliver high-quality creative work within timelines.
