Tomohiro Takano

Co-founder Genomelink YC S21 ($8.1M raised)

We worked with Kris on our Facebook ads. What I liked about his work was to care about all the performance details and manage ads daily. I have been working with many agencies, but most of the time, they only analyze the performance and make weekly changes, saying it is the best practice. While I agree with the argument for some cases, I generally expect to make changes more frequently when we need to. Kris was flexible and professional enough to work with the expectations. Highly recommended!

Co-Founder @ Adcrate

We’ve been working with Kris for nearly two years, and he’s been nothing short of incredible. As our media buying manager, he’s helped scale accounts from low five figures into the mid range, always with a collaborative and highly strategic approach. His knowledge of media buying is unmatched, his communication is clear, and he thrives even in challenging scenarios by diving deep into analysis and problem-solving. Honestly, part of me wants to gatekeep him, but he’s a fantastic partner, and I’d recommend him 10/10 to anyone serious about growth.

Sonja Sierra

Senior Director, Growth Marketing at Nuts.com

I hired Kris to run our first ever pilot of Tik Tok for Nuts.com after working with him in a previous role. Kris is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and trustworthy. He was able to hustle and get the campaigns set up quickly for us to meet a deadline for running our incrementality test through our testing partner, LiftLab. Kris was able to seamlessly integrate with our geo-lift testing framework and set up the campaign within the strict parameters to successfully run the geo-lift test with geo hold outs and spend pacing. I would not hesitate to recommend Kris to anyone looking for media buying services on Meta, Google and Tik Tok. I am looking forward to continued partnership with Kris.

Aleksandar Pecev

Growth Marketer

Kris isn’t just a skilled media buyer, he’s a systems-minded growth architect. He sees patterns before most, balances speed with precision, and has a rare ability to zoom out on strategic direction while staying laser-focused on the operational levers that drive growth. Working with him sharpens your own thinking because he approaches problems like a business owner, not just a marketer. If you want to stay on the edge of what’s working in paid social while building long-term efficiency, Kris is one of the best partners you can have

Paul-Cristian Mureșan

Creative Strategist

Working with Kris was a complete unlock for me... not just in creative strategy and media buying, but in how I think as a marketer. He completely reshaped the way I interpret ads, analyze psychology, and make decisions. Before, I had surface-level understanding. After, I knew exactly why something worked, or didn’t, based on data and clear hypotheses. That shift in thinking has been invaluable. Kris doesn’t just teach skills; he transforms the way you see marketing. 10/10, I’d recommend him to anyone who wants to level up their craft and their mindset.

Sonja Sierra

Director of Acquistion Marketing at Career Karma

During my time at Career Karma as Director of Acquisition Marketing, I worked directly with Kristijan on our Facebook ads strategy for 2 years. Kristijan was responsible for all aspects of ad buying and management and over time became my go-to for all things Facebook. Kristijan's knowledge of the Facebook platform and ability to also think strategically and push back where needed makes him a really strong ad buyer. I truly enjoyed working with Kris and I hope to work with him again in the future.
