Beyond the surface

A fresh take on creative consulting services. Within the last decade, I’ve been a trusted creative lead, consulting on branded campaign projects, brainstorming sprints, and launches with clients like Olay, Speedo, Diageo, IBM, BET Networks, Foot Locker, Pepsi, and more. 

As far as coaching goes, I obtained my Health & Wellness coaching certification in 2022 from MindBodyGreen, and now spend my free time mentoring young women of color with cultivating their creative wellness, empowering them to find a harmonious work-life balance, and uncover their own unique brand story.

A few brands I’ve worked with

Testimonials

  • Milena is intuitive, collaborative, and sharp. She's never afraid to ask "how" or "why" meaning you can trust that her tasks will not only be done well, with clear intention. She's also a problem solver that's comfortable with independently seeking solutions outside of the status quo. There were countless times when Milena would come to me with problems already solved using resources I didn't even know existed. And on top of being a strategic thinker and efficient worker, she's a wonderful human.

    Jessica L. - Founder, Make Ads with Me

  • Milena brings creative insight and expertise to concepts across platforms. She's especially knowledgeable about the social media and digital landscape. Her approaches are fresh, and she pitches concepts in a strong manner. She's not one to simply jump on the bandwagon without strong reasoning, so I appreciate her ability to look at all possibilities when it comes to decision-making.

    John K. - Content Marketing Manager, Amazon

  • Milena played a huge role in developing insights for our target audiences as well as helping us with community management. She has a broad understanding of the social landscape and a keen eye for cultural trends. With her expertise we were able to develop conceptual and insightful creative in real time. Not only is she a great strategist but she’s also super conceptual and a great writer. She truly can wear multiple hats.
