Karrine is an outstanding account manager whose proactive nature truly sets her apart; she is always one step ahead of her clients’ instincts. A relentless problem-solver, she refuses to let challenges sit, consistently bringing structure and clarity to even the most complex, fast-moving accounts. She has an incredible ability to walk into chaos and leave behind a well-oiled machine.

Career highlights
I lead social and integrated campaigns from the account side and have worked across GCC and US markets throughout my career. My role sits between strategy and execution, shaping ideas early and ensuring they hold through to rollout. I have contributed to large-scale launches, cross-cultural campaigns and complex multi-stakeholder accounts where alignment and clarity are critical. Social is my strongest discipline; I advocate for platform-led thinking and protect it throughout the process. Over time, I have taken on greater responsibility, building client trust and consistently elevating the standard of delivery.
Guiding principles
Lead with clarity.
Align before you execute.
Protect what makes the idea strong.
I believe platform intelligence and disciplined delivery are what separate good work from lasting impact.
Side hustle
Beyond agency life, I prioritise fitness, outdoor experiences and staying immersed in beauty and wellness trends. Travel plays a big role in how I observe culture and behaviour, keeping me sharp and continuously evolving in both perspective and ambition.
