I’m Katie Debrah — an award-winning Creative Strategist and Platform Educator with over $1B in campaign experience.
I help brands, agencies, and labels improve the creative that drives their content, ads, and launches.
And I partner with platforms like YouTube, Spotify, and Meta to train and upskill the agencies, creators, and teams that power the ecosystem.
I’ve had the pleasure of working with some FANTASTIC visionary brands
With nearly fifteen years of experience driving impactful campaigns for global brands like Google and YouTube, I've honed my skills in video production, storytelling, digital strategy, Gen AI, and inclusive marketing. I’ve worked at YouTube, Google, AOL, Huffington Post, and with the worlds largest non-profits and human rights organisations.
Now, as the founder of Halo and Echo, my AI marketing consultancy and creative studio, I'm passionate about empowering businesses to drive results, connect with diverse audiences, launch innovative initiatives, and achieve measurable growth.
Let's collaborate and amplify your brand's unique voice.
