Hello, I’m Ahmad—

I bring brands to life through immersive retail and experiential marketing that convert curiosity into measurable growth. At Rivian, I’ve increased net-new leads generated per quarter by 8% and demo drives by 12%, driving meaningful movement at the top of the funnel through community-centered activations and high-touch brand experiences. With a foundation in retail storytelling, event production, and strategic partnerships, I merge creativity with operational rigor to craft experiences that translate brand purpose into tangible outcomes. Whether producing pop-ups for culture-defining brands or leading large-scale test-drive programs for Rivian, my work bridges strategy and emotion—turning audience engagement into loyalty, visibility, and long-term brand engagement.

Please feel free to explore some of my work below.

Notable Experiences

The Art Institute of Chicago


From 2023-2024, I worked on Worldviews, the first rotation of artworks in the Franke Reading Room in over 30 years. As an intern there for two years, I worked a few key projects. Feel free to check out some of my other contributions from my time at The Art Institute!

JoeFreshGoods


From helping run Fat Tiger Workshop, a creative hub and experiential retail space, to contributing to large-scale activations and campaigns with New Balance, Converse, Mitchell and Ness, Snapple, and ComplexCon—my experiences here shaped my interests in brand partnerships and community engagement.

For most of time with Joe, I served as an on-site retail member, occasionally championing operational excellence.

Nike


For nearly 3 years, I was a part of the Jordan Brand and Nike Basketball department at Nike Chicago. I was fortunate enough to join in on efforts to activate the space during the 2020 All-Star Weekend.
