I consider myself a "COMMUNICATOR" a new bread with expertise of the Media universe of the 21st century. A multitasker with knowledge of all Media Channels and the wit to connect and complement content to achieve the objectives.

Incorporation, Integration, connectivity, creativity, the list goes on... all are keywords that are part of my vocabulary.

I've worked in Television, which allowed me to built my skills and abilities that go from Producer, to Writer, Director, Creative, video editor.

Also worked in the Music Industry as an A&R, Head of promotion and marketing for an independent Record Label. Where I managed the image and commercial, sponsorships deals of the artists and products.

I was an account manager for a PR&Communication agency, where I had the chance to explore all my features in a non linear way, doing digital work as web consultant and SoMe Management.

Today I'm working at an advertising company as a strategic / transmedia planner, responsible for development of new business strategies and monitoring creative teams and clients.
