Samantha Scaloni
Executive Creative Director
DDB Group Italy
Milan, Italy
Born in Terni (42°34’N 12°39’E), she started her career as a copywriter in BBDO Milan.
Now she is Executive Creative Director in DDB Group Italy, where she leads her team by working with a fully integrated, big idea-oriented approach to make the conversation blossom and make brands more and more culturally relevant. Her cross-sector expertise and work for different brands have been recognised at top industry award shows, including Cannes Lions, OneShow, New York Festivals, Eurobest, The Clios, ADCE, to name a few. She is also co-founder of SheSays Milan, the Italian chapter of the global network of women in the creative industry that promotes and supports female empowerment. Anything else about her? She loves books, and she hates sharks. Even if they are just pictures in a book.
