AROON MUKHEY | Creative Director Copywriter 

An award-winning Creative Director and Copywriter, in his 10+ years in advertising, Aroon has taken the “big bad” out of a forestry giant, left an indelible impression across LA & Cannes bringing King Kong to life for Peter Jackson and Universal Studios, enraged an Italian count, and helped singles find love through their taste-buds as 100+ million people watched.

Aroon is experienced and skilled in developing fully-integrated conceptual campaigns—digital, social, activations, outreach, broadcast, branded content—as well leading teams, and shepherding the work from initial concepts and presentation through final production.

Based in Los Angeles, Aroon is “Zoom-ready” and open to creative opportunities, both freelance and full time.
