I am a marketing and communications professional with a wide range of experience and a passion for diving deep into new categories and industries. At large, global agencies - primarily Edelman and Ogilvy - I worked in consumer brand categories such as apparel, food, grills, automotive, cleaning products, and packaged goods. Then, I brought my integrated marketing viewpoint and eye for operational excellence in-house at Azeeza US, where I focused on scaling the business sustainably and building strong retail and marketing partnerships.
