Hi! I’m Olivier and I live in Brooklyn, NYC.
I’m a seasoned Creative Director dedicated to playing a meaningful role in organizations that value creativity.
After completing my studies in Film and Cinema, I lived and worked in Paris for 20 years, first as a film director for various brands and then as a copywriter and Creative Director. I spent 7 years at the independent agency Hungry and Foolish, leading the creative teams on a range of local and global awarded campaigns, before moving to New York City in 2022 to become the Creative Director of Copy at the independent shop Ready Set Rocket.
My passion lies in writing and advertising, always with an eye on digital and social trends. I value teamwork across creative, strategy, media, influence, and client domains to produce outstanding work.
When I am not working, you can find me playing tennis or soccer, or maybe curating some vintage stuff around.
