About me
I am a Greek-American coming all the way from Sparta, Greece (see "300" the movie).
Some say I am a brave man with an exotic accent, who left his land to conquer the Advertising Industry.
With a background in economics, you're probably wondering why I'm in advertising.
All it takes is five minutes around me, and that question should answer itself!
One thing I know for sure is how to have fun, and this quality is what I bring from Greece to the Advertising world. Being surrounded by uniquely creative people ultimately fuels my energy, and this is why I decided to travel throughout my studies.
I am an Art Director that leverages the power of the latest cultural and technological trends to create impactful and insightful work that connects with people and embraces brand relevancy. A boundlessly creative and relentlessly attentive to detail Art Director who possesses not just exceptional art direction skills but the ability to implement strategic and conceptual thinking as well.
