They say the worst day at an advertising agency still beats the best day at a bank. Funny, considering I did a lot of work for banks and actually enjoyed it.
Highlights include The Dark Side of Money, an award-winning short thriller that helped ABN AMRO recruit a record number of financial crime analysts, and being part of the core pitch team that won the Rabobank account at Dentsu Creative Amsterdam.
Beyond finance, I have 10+ years of experience cracking briefs for brands like KPN, Plus, Melkunie, VW and Fight Cancer. I also love coming up with ideas clients never asked for and making them happen. One of my former CDs even called me a much-appreciated stalker. Thanks for the compliment, Anne.
My work has been featured in (inter)national media and recognized at shows like the Effies, the Dutch Creativity Awards, the Webby Awards, and Eurobest. Want to get in touch? Reach me at +31620307704 or lragetlie@gmail.com.
