Performance creative agency · Remote

I edit UGC and performance-driven ads for digital campaigns at Network Creative, a US performance-creative agency. The team builds growth-focused advertising for Meta, TikTok, YouTube, Snapchat and CTV — and I shape and optimize that content to drive measurable results: customer acquisition, scale, and high ad performance.

00:02 — About me

A storyteller who thinks like a director and a marketer at the same time.

I'm a graduated audiovisual communicator from Guatemala with two master's degrees in marketing and corporate communication. My path has run from film sets and documentary fieldwork to a United Nations agency in Geneva — and today, to performance advertising for global brands.

That mix is the point: I bring film-grade craft to every frame, and a strategist's eye for what actually makes content perform.
