ABOUT
Kayla Daquino
Building marketing systems, performance creative, and brand strategies that connect storytelling with measurable growth.
I work at the intersection of creative strategy, growth marketing, and production. Most brands come to me with a strategy problem or a creative problem — and usually believe it's the other one. The work starts by naming the real one.
I don't separate strategy from execution. I build the creative brief, develop the messaging, write the scripts, direct production, and oversee the final creative — so the original strategic intent survives from the first brief through the last asset. That's rarer than it sounds: most brands have to choose between someone who can set the strategy and someone who can execute it. I do both.
My background runs across media and entertainment, brand marketing, performance creative, and entrepreneurship. The throughline is building marketing that means something before it says anything — clarity and positioning before content volume.
