WHO?

My former boss and friend Erick Rosa wrote this as a recommendation letter before he moved from Singapore to Tokyo:

Martin is a hybrid senior creative that has performed several roles at the agency. 

He can be an art director when needed, a designer, even a copywriter. 

But I think his greatest quality is being able to create the kind of content and ideas that can cross any line and platform -to best address the clients’ needs- always with an extra dose of creativity. 
His responsibilities vary from leadings teams, to working very closely with clients and being responsible for some of out biggest global brands. 

I have trusted him with some of our biggest and most important projects and he always surpassed every expectation.

This comes from his unparalleled work ethic the desire to always raise the agency’s creative reputation.

His key strengths I would say are: creativity, the knack for  finding the best and most unusual ideas every time.  And,  as important:  his interpersonal skills are second to none.
Martin can be a great colleague and always inspires the team.

As for areas of development -Martin is always looking for new things to learn. 
Be it investing his time on becoming a great photographer or learning new techniques of art direction, design and all things tech.  

Martin is always eager for more knowledge. More everything. 

To conclude, I think Martin’s biggest strength is the fact that he is many Martins.
Someone with a great set of skills, with a personality that can change a room and for that matter, an agency.

Martin is a rare breed.  

One of the nicest (and hardest working) individuals I have ever had the privilege to work with. 
I am 100% sure anyone will have a very hard time finding someone  that has ever worked with him that would not back up all the lines above.
