WELCOME IN *

Hi there! My name is Milani Cruz and I’m a Writer and Creative Producer.

Since 2015, I have been in Media Production, Advertising, and Marketing. While I’ve done no shortage of projects following the traditional guidelines of Production and Creative Marketing, my current focus is on creating meaningful and unique creative assets and experiences to foster brand, community, and individual growth, no matter where your emphasis is.
