A multi-skilled creative across campaigns, art direction, design and photography, for brands including Canva, BMW Australia, Volvo, Vodafone and Foxtel Media.
“Having a natural passion for photography, a design background and a previous career in law, Renata is a unique breed of creative that creates content beyond aesthetics: content that performs, engages and converts. With those principles at the heart of her work, Renata blurs the lines between strategy and creative, able to ideate and execute impactful campaigns seamlessly.”
I'm a hands-on senior creative making design and campaign work people stop for. I spent the last five years at Canva leading integrated global campaigns from first idea to final production, across digital, social, EDM, print, photography, video and motion. Before that, I worked at JOY. as Associate Creative Director, at whiteGREY (WPP), and freelanced for agencies like Ogilvy and Publicis on brands spanning automotive, telco, media, FMCG, tourism, beauty, fashion and bridal.
I bring a sharp eye, great taste and impeccable craft, and I genuinely care about the people I work with. I roll up my sleeves, solve problems and keep the work beautifully on brand and on time.
Outside work I'm a maker. My favourite hours are spent running with my partner and dog, shooting, sewing, painting and dreaming in lace.
