aleksandra-pawlowska

I am a Strategy Director passionate about purpose driven work and leading teams with entrepreneurial spirit.

I worked with some of the biggest brands in the world from experience design, brand management, content strategy, influencer marketing and more.

My passion for strategy that creates change led me to becoming a contributor to Purpose Disruptors - a network of advertising insiders working together to reshape the industry to tackle climate change.

With background in journalism and passion for social media, I run my own platform focused on conscious storytelling and impact for over 6 years called Looking for Heroes. I launched an ethical and sustainable fashion line and told many stories some of which went viral.
