OMAR, THE CREATIVE.

OMAR SILWANY IS CURRENTLY A FREELANCE CREATIVE DIRECTOR.

His recent work has convinced students their S-Pen is lit, reminded the world there’s a bank helping people rise, and launched 5G ahead of a global pandemic. He’s shown athletes an iron will also exists in women, girl & boy sizes. He has called on Dracula and Queen to fight back against annoying flash photography. And he’s teamed up with President Obama, Steph Curry and Chance The Rapper to help kids of color be each other’s keepers. He even brought Questlove back home, for a love fest.

Omar, the creative, has also invented a way for visionaries to translate their taste in art into a custom luxury ride. Transformed a day of binge drinking into a celebration of musicians made of more. Welcomed armchair sleuths into a live murder investigation. Built a portal into 1963. And written his way to the Scottish highlands to raise a dram with the single malt messiah. He's even put some of his most valuable work in everyone’s wallets. (Is he Banksy?)

No other career in the world but Advertising (or pro skating, acting, reality TV, reggaeton and ruling caliphate) could give a human named Omar so many rich opportunities to write, make friends, build brands and improve our world. For that, he’s grateful to everyone in adland’s proverbial trenches.

Hit him up. If you think you’ve got the right Omar.
