Ali Ali

It may not be obvious, but Ali studied computer engineering at the American University in Cairo, with a minor in painting. Preferring storyboards to motherboards, he quickly abandoned a mediocre programming career to study Design and Art Direction at the Miami Ad School.
Ali spent a little over a year in Miami before moving to Romania as a Junior Art Director for D’Arcy Bucharest. He met some incredible people at the now-closed Agency, and they’re still friends to this day.
From Romania Ali moved to Germany with Leagas Delaney, Hamburg. Where he worked under a great Art Director, Hermann Waterkamp. From there he went on to build a truly global career, first as Art Director
then as Creative Director for the likes of Leo Burnett, JWT, McCann, before finally topping it off as ECD of DDB-Berlin in 2012.
