Large-Scale Budget Management: Oversee combined advertising and media budgets exceeding $1 Billion annually across TV, digital, radio, and print. Targeted Outreach: Lead campaigns specifically designed to engage centimillionaire and billionaire stakeholders, family offices, and government entities. Qualifications 15+ years of successful hands-on experience in PR, marketing, and brand strategy. Proven record of managing multi-brand portfolios and budgets exceeding $1B annually.
