Hi 👋

A little more about me

I’m Mook, a Design Director who loves to create meaningful designs and campaigns for different platforms. I’m based in New York, where I lead design teams and work with cool brands like Microsoft, Mastercard, Verizon, Prudential, Cadillac and MGM.

My passion is to create meaningful work that empowers people to make a positive change. I’ve also been part of winning accounts like Prudential, Snapdragon and Ulta Beauty for McCann New York.

My work has been recognized by some of the best advertising festivals, like Cannes, Clios, and London International Awards. I’m always looking for new challenges and opportunities to grow as a designer.

If you want to chat about design, ideas, projects or anything else, feel free to reach out to me.
I’d love to grab a coffee with you.
