Hi! I'm a Creative Director, Copywriter, Art Director and Storyteller, who makes brand communication at the intersection of art, technologies and drama with 10+ years of experience. I lead projects from concept to the final execution of each part of a project. I'm currently based in Yerevan, Armenia.

My responsibilities are:
Lead creative work on projects for the clients;
Develop advertising campaign ideas, creative concepts and stories;
Building a working process;
Manage the creative team (copy&art);
Inspire and revealing young talents;
Work in constant connection with account teams to ensure a campaign meets clients' needs, timing and budget;
Oversee campaigns from production to completion including director's bidding, storyboarding, casting, locations, mise-en-scene, video editing, CG and sound design;
Present, or oversee presentation of final concepts to clients.
I launched campaigns for MasterCard, T-Systems, UniCredit Bank, DHL, Auchan, Scania, Mitch&Me, Orange and dozens others companies.
My works have been awarded at many International Festivals, such as Cannes Lions, Epica Awards (for Copywriting&Storytelling), Red Dot Awards, ADCR, KIAF, Red Apple, White Square, Idea, SREDA, etc.
