I’m Pauline—Associate Creative Director and designer based in Denver, CO. Strategic creative leader and mentor. Over the course of the last 12+ years, I’ve worked with wonderful brands like Target, DISH Network, southwest, Hasbro, Universal, DreamWorks, Nickelodeon, Warner browsers, Saban, Mattel.. I supported big and emerging brands to find their voice and shape complex ideas into long-lasting legacies.
I’ve had the opportunity to lead full 360 campaigns from concept to production. it’s more than ideas it also takes into account the client’s overall goals, budget, and timelines to deliver on those ideas and make them a reality.
The team is everything! I have led solid creative teams with varying talent and experience levels. I thrive on collaboration and understand how to lead and partner with art, design, copy, production, subject matters experts, and stakeholders to build the best designs. An extremely passionate storyteller, I believe in being authentic and having fun doing it. The team doesn't stop with delivering design but, includes managing the subjects matter experts to stakeholders, and relationships on the client side. You always need to think proactively about the brand's future needs.
When I m not at work, I value the power of multicultural and diversity, that being a good person trumps everything else, and that Friday nights are for friends and family board games time.
