What’s the most creative advertising idea you’ve seen recently? 

‍

I recently came across Eggs by QuickBooks, directed by Ian Pons Jewell, and it blew me away. It's a cool piece that has it all: tension, horror, absurdity, and subtle yet fantastic comedy. The characters and art direction are well crafted, and overall, I'm a huge fan of Ian Pons Jewell's work.

What website(s) do you use most regularly?

‍

In my daily routine, I frequently visit a tarot website that's a bit sketchy, but adds an interesting start to my day. I also have Google Translate constantly open to help me with translations of Spanish words or songs that I come across during the day. When I want to forget who I am, I enjoy getting lost on Instagram. Additionally, I often turn to chatGPT to seek answers to important, life-changing questions.
