A deliverable driven culture  not time-watching, but impact-measuring.

Where Do you preform best?

I thrive in the space between strategy and creativity going back and forth Rationalizing – Creating.
I believe in asking the uncomfortable questions that lead to breakthrough thinking.

I collaborate best when ideas can flow freely, without hierarchy or politics.

I often engage in physical movement during deep thinking or focus-intensive tasks. This may include walking while thinking, working while standing, switching seat positions frequently, or even laying down while problem-solving. These behaviors are not a sign of disrespect — they are intentional methods that help stimulate my brain and sustain engagement. They reflect how I operate at my highest level.

What is your mindset ?

“Maymkenx is music to my ear.”

“Fly high  there’s less traffic .”

“I’ve never let titles stop me from asking or learning. At the end of the day, we’re all human.”

“Creativity is intelligence having fun. Strategy is creativity with direction. Together, they change everything.”

Are there any types of brands you won’t work with?

I choose not to work on alcohol or gambling brands.


Not as a constraint — but as a commitment to the kind of collaborator I am.

Saying no here is an intentional trade-off  an opportunity cost I accept to protect the quality of my contribution.
Because saying no to what misaligns means saying yes to what fuels me: full creative energy, deep purpose, and real emotional investment.

That’s the version of me teams value most 

” the one who gets obsessed, digs deep, and finds the idea under the idea.”


And I’d rather protect that than compromise it
