EVENTS

Many brands forget that we are human first and our senses can be heightened when we are immersed in new environments and spaces. Event creative strategy is an underrated yet powerful skill to have, and if you don’t have it, you’re leaving money on the table. You need a leader with clear vision and thoughtful ideas that can bring your events to life and create memorable moments for your audience.

The mix of compelling visuals, authentic narratives, and strategic distribution in channels has the ability to capture attention, evoke emotion, and spark new ideas. As a brand, you need a strong video presence that authentically connects with your audiences, fostering deeper connections and driving meaningful results.

You need to make sure that your brand foundation is solid before you can build and evolve your business.

LEADERSHIP

Effective leadership requires a delicate balance between fostering a collaborative and innovative environment while also providing clear guidance and direction. It's crucial to understand and empower your team's diverse talents and ideas, encouraging them to take calculated risks and push creative boundaries. You need a Creative leader that can lead a team with the right balance to elevate your brand.

Whether its his design expertise, organizational skills, or project management advice you can always count on him. We desperately needed a way to share our Amazon Creative process with the greater Creative team. Francis executed a beautifully outlined process with links and references for the team - without anyone asking. That's the thing with Francis he just gets it.”

  • W.J. (Director of DEI)

    Working with Francis is truly a delight. His approach to collaboration and creativity sets him apart. He not only attentively listens to the thoughts and ideas generated by the team or Employee Resource Group (ERG), but he also has a remarkable ability to enhance and elevate them. Francis possesses a unique gift for transforming concepts into reality. Often, we share fragments of our vision, unsure of how to bring them to life, and Francis steps in to bridge that gap. His capability to perceive the bigger picture is exceptional. Moreover, he excels at guiding us in new directions if our initial ideas need refining. Beyond his professional talents, Francis radiates kindness and a genuine passion for creating works of art. This genuine care and enthusiasm shine through in every interaction, creating an inspiring and supportive environment. In essence, Francis not only brings creativity and innovation to our projects, but he also fosters a positive and collaborative atmosphere that makes working alongside him a truly enriching experience.

  • C.K. (Copywriter)

    “Francis is the best! He's so encouraging and uplifting, especially with my career growth. I always keep learning new creative practices from him and how to unleash the best work from myself. He's also one of the most (if not the most) innovative people on the creative team, always looking ahead to see how we can knock all of our assets out of the park and stand out from the competition. Francis is one of the best and supportive managers and team members I've ever had!”

  • J.T. (Sr. ABM Manager)

    Francis has been a such a great team member to work with. Not only does he always bring a positive energy into a (Zoom) room but I truly admire his talent to think outside of the box and appreciate him challenging our sense of creativity. While majority of the projects we work together are new to the team and always require a different level of lift from his end, Francis always tackles these projects with such patience and enthusiasm. He has showcased his ability to manage a complex project with multiple stakeholders on sometimes tight deadlines, especially during our recent CMO summer direct mail campaign which included researching AI video tools, video production and editing, and the design of multiple print materials. He has helped me build a process for direct mail campaigns and has went out of his way to create slides that provides a better visual breakdown for the Brand Studio team to leverage. I truly appreciate Francis' willingness to collaborate and his support on all our direct mail campaigns. Thank you for all you do!

  • W.M. (Creative Director)

  • T.W. (Events Coordinator)

    Working with Francis is always an absolute dream. He's understanding, hardworking and considerate, and makes working on big projects SO much fun. I've had the pleasure of working with him for some big events this year (Tinuiti Live, WIRLS, and now Amazon unBoxed), and he always brings a positive attitude to our calls. Not many people can join every call with optimism and great ideas, but Francis consistently does -- I always leave a call with him feeling empowered and motivated. Thank you for all that you do, Francis; you bring so much joy to so many of us!

  • S.W. (Creative Director)

    “I have to take some time to shout out my fellow Sr. Manager, Francis. If you've worked with him you know what a powerhouse he is in the creative world. He equally matches this strength on the leadership team. His ideas to elevate team morale, find efficiencies, and overall improve our department are always impactful. He has been such a guiding light for me over the past year as I've navigated this new role myself. I am endlessly thankful. Francis, you shine in all you do!”

  • W.M. (Creative Director)

    “Francis never ceases to amaze me with his drive and dedication to the creative team. From keeping our team organized to diving into a design realignment in the night's wee hours, I can always count on him to execute. Thank you, Francis, for all that you do!”

  • K.H. (Comms Program Manager)

    “Francis is a joy to work with! First and foremost he is open, honest, creative, and a true partner. He is always collaborative and enters calls with enthusiasm and transparency, looking for solutions and not the obstacles. This is so helpful in my role. It's rare that someone is looking for the good and seeking out the work.

    Next, he is INCREDIBLE at his job. The execution of his design goes beyond expectations. He is a gift to this company and I have been really excited to learn from him and work together. I hope there is more of that in the future!”
