Your ads shouldn't just get views. They should generate sales. If you're spending money on Meta, TikTok, YouTube, or other paid channels, the biggest factor in performance is often the creative itself. That's where I come in. I help brands create ad creative that stops the scroll, communicates value quickly, and gives customers a reason to buy. When we work together, you'll get: • Ad creative built specifically for paid media, not content that only looks good organically • Fresh concepts and hooks designed to improve click-through rates and conversions • Videos that can be used across Meta, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and other acquisition channels • A partner who understands the entire customer journey, not just video editing • Fast communication and reliable delivery I've worked with brands ranging from startups to globally recognized companies, and the goal is always the same: Create content that helps you acquire more customers and generate more revenue. If you're looking for someone who understands both creative and performance marketing, send me a message and I'll share examples of work that's driving results for brands.

I’m a Customer Experience Team Lead and professional Model/UGC Creator with a background in SaaS support, marketing, and content creation, helping businesses deliver seamless, high-quality experiences across every customer touchpoint. In my current role, I lead a high-volume support team where I manage complex customer issues, improve workflows, and ensure fast, thoughtful, and consistent communication. I’m experienced in ticket-based support, onboarding, troubleshooting, and working across systems to resolve issues efficiently while maintaining a strong customer experience. I also have experience working with consumer brands, where I supported customers through social channels, handling product questions, order issues, and post-purchase concerns. This has given me a strong understanding of both operational support and brand-facing communication. Beyond support, I’ve built AI-assisted workflows and internal tools to help streamline processes, identify patterns, and improve team efficiency. I enjoy working at the intersection of customer experience and systems, where I can not only solve problems but improve how things work long-term. In addition, I work as a UGC creator and model, collaborating with brands to create high-performing content across TikTok and Instagram.
