Summary

Over the years I was lucky to take part in fascinating and challenging projects as creative director and entrepreneur. I developed and executed a wide range of storytelling products for mobile, web and print, mostly in the media and education industries. As an entrepreneur and co-founder I executed on commercial concepts to create technological products and realize the vision of the company. I led business strategy, business planning & development, sales, communication and managed large teams. Always an active Fine Artist, I studied at Bezalel Academy of Art and Design Jerusalem and have participated in a large number of solo & group exhibitions.
