Art Direction

I'm Kostenko Serhii Serhiyovich
Or you can call me Serge.
I was born in the longest city in Ukraine,
Just a year before the Internet.
Sounds young?
Wait till you hear of the crazy adventures I've been on.
From farming corn in the middle of Ohio,
Competing in intense fencing tournaments,
To leading a team of 7
As a Brand Communications Manager
At start-ups in Berlin and Kyiv
One can say I've lived multiple lives. 

Currently, as an Art Director
At David+Martin Berlin
Exploring creativity in its different forms
From the most obscure techno parties
To modern art exhibits
In order to craft campaigns
That matter
To people outside of the advertising world.
