Tactics

  • adidas — APAC performanceEssenceMediacom

  • adidas — Global PR AwardEssenceMediacom

    I pitched placing empty pairs of shoes outside Iranian embassies worldwide. They were a silent representation of the women who disappeared during protests for equal rights in Iran.

  • World Vision AustraliaEssenceMediacom

    With a leaner structure, I added dynamic search copy so ads matched both the query and the searcher’s city. Read the full case

Results

Each result belongs to its own client, market and period, and they are not measured against each other. Different verticals, different years, different baselines — read them one at a time, not as a ranking.
