About

Hello. I'm Ilene,

a Product Designer

based in Toronto.

...

Background

I come from a fast and furious world of advertising with years of experience in multimedia communications and production, involving digital, TV, social & print.

As an Account Supervisor at a world-class advertising agency, Leo Burnett, I orchestrate large-scale projects for international brands (currently Buick & GMC Canada) and deliver creative work that satisfies the client’s business needs as well as the target audience’s wants.

I chose to take on a more creative role by becoming a Product Designer; a role that perfectly marries my strategic skills with my passion for visual design.

Strengths

Through my career in a creative industry, I have solid experience in understanding business objectives, evaluating design, presenting and defending ideas, collaborating with stakeholders, and working strategically against deadlines. As a Product Designer, I strive to translate these skills into products with a positive impact.

When I'm not designing...

I’m most likely exploring neighbourhoods on foot, trying the newest eateries in the city, or enjoying the world of cinema.
