Creative Director at Edelman

About me

Before stepping into advertising, he passed high school majoring in Art, Design and Media Studies. He then graduated college with a degree in Media Studies majoring in Film, along with a shiny gold medal (which got stolen in a burglary).

While stumbling upon advertising was an accident, Moiz soon found his thirst for telling stories quenched. He absolutely relishes telling stories that change perceptions, challenge the status quo or simply leave you in awe.

Spending over a decade in film and advertising, he has grown from a timid copywriter to a showman Creative Director, while bagging over 200+ international awards including Cannes Lions, Clios, D&AD and more. His most notable campaigns are UNWomen's #BridalUniform (#56 on WARC100) and #BeatMe (Gunn Top 100 Campaigns of 2017)

Moiz's exposure to clientele has been diverse. He has worked with both international and regional brands including Pepsi, 7up, Tropicana, Visa, Gatorade, Unilever, Reckitt, Bayer, UN women, StarzPlay, Dubai Tourism, Toyota, Novartis, ACDelco and Swiss Arabian to list a few.

When not in the office, Moiz works to complete a comic book of a modern boy who unearths ancient myths of the South Asian region, a mix of Indiana Jones and Nathan Drake. He also enjoys playing video games and dreams of creating a game room where he can collect game consoles and video games from the early 8 bit era to the modern 4k storytelling marvels
