ABOUT—

André is the Chief Creative Officer of DAVID New York, recognized in Adweek’s Creative 100 and twice ranked among Cannes Lions’ Top 10 Most Awarded Creative Directors.

In its first years, DAVID’s youngest office has more than tripled in size and revenue, partnering with brands like Supercell, IKEA, CLIF Bar, Powerade, and Cointreau. In 2025, it was named Cannes Lions Entertainment Agency of the Year.

Before moving to New York, André was a founding member of DAVID Madrid, the network’s first European office, where he led work for Netflix, Burger King, Twitter, and Milka. In just three years, the Madrid office was named Ad Age’s A-List International Agency of the Year, produced two Super Bowl spots, and became the most awarded Spanish agency in Cannes Lions history.

Previously, André served as Global Creative Director at LOLA MullenLowe, overseeing global campaigns for Magnum, Cornetto, and Scrabble. During that time, LOLA was named the most creative agency in Ibero-America three years in a row, ranked the top agency in Europe by WARC, and was recognized as one of Cannes Lions’ Top 10 European Agencies of the Decade.

André began his career in his hometown, Lima, Perú, at DDB and Y&R, where he won the country’s first Mobile Lion.
