Executive Creative Director
Amsterdam
Yv is the ultimate teller of stories. In fact, he’s the story whisperer: the founder of a whole new, modern, up close and personal approach to storytelling. A philosophy he’s developed over 16 years of through-the-line advertising experience, bringing magical results to brands he worked for during his tenure in a number of creative leadership roles both stateside and in Europe.
Prior to joining AKQA, Yv was the Group Creative Director of interactive entertainment company King, part of Activision Blizzard, working globally on all games. He also held leadership roles at agencies including Serviceplan, Publicis, FCB, and TBWA.
As well as Storywhispering™ for brands, Yv often picks up the mic to deliver lectures at conferences, and hosts workshops for the likes of the Berlin School of Creative Leadership, Miami Ad School and the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity.
