• Review influencer concepts to ensure content is optimized for success, providing actionable feedback that elevates their creative.
  
• Apply the right creative lens depending on the client’s industry and strategy (e.g., fashion may call for editorial, cinematic storytelling, while CPG may require playful, trend-led, social-first content).

Operational Leadership

• Exceptional communication skills with clients, creators, and internal teams.
