About Emil
Emil is a paid social specialist who likes to prove you can be good with numbers and artistic at the same time, an approach he applies to campaigns across Meta and LinkedIn. He joined Anicca in 2021 following agency-side experience at Fifteen Design, and now shapes paid social strategy across the agency’s ecommerce and lead generation accounts.
Emil fronts Anicca’s Meta and LinkedIn advertising webinars, from Taking Your Meta Catalogue Ads to the Next Level in 2024 to 2026’s What’s New in Meta Ads Manager, and writes the agency’s paid social coverage. He spends his spare time with his son or immersed in football, from playing to Fantasy Football statistics.
A self-proclaimed social media addict with his finger on the pulse, Emil demonstrates the numbers-plus-artistry approach in every campaign: visual creative built on a statistical foundation.
