Hi. My name is Roberto, but my friends call me Rob. I’m an Emmy-nominated Creative Director with global experience working on a wide range of brands from large Fortune 500 companies to smaller non-profits. My work has been recognized by international awards shows like Cannes Lions, the D&AD, the Webby Awards, the One Show, the ADC, and the Clio Awards. My work is also part of the MoMA’s permanent collection.
But more importantly, I really love what I do. Advertising is my passion and I’m relentlessly optimistic about it. That’s why I constantly strive to improve the work that I make one brief at a time, and have fun while doing it.
