“I came to a point in my career where I wasn’t sure I had a clear purpose, or if I was inspiring the best creative work from the people I work with. I decided to apply to the Berlin School because it was the right time to set a new course to my professional life. I am a believer that only better creative means better business for the agency and its clients, and as a leader I want to turn this belief into everyday practice.”
