  • Strong storyteller with the ability to develop work that grab and keep audiences’ ever-shrinking attention
  • Entrepreneurial-minded creative looking to work as part of creative team to build a next-gen skincare brand that people will love
  • Word worshiper who catches everything from small grammatical errors to slips in our brand voice
