And that’s a good thing.

I'm a Creative Director/Creative Lead with more than a two decades of shaping locally and internationally recognised campaigns for some of Australia’s biggest brands. Combining strategically driven concepts with craft as an Art Director and Designer, I have a love of work that is creatively interesting with visuals that cut-through.

Since 2022 I’ve been freelancing across Melbourne’s top agencies as a Creative Director and Senior Art Director, delivering everything from fast-turn social content to through-the-line retail and brand platforms.

Previously, I was Creative Director at AJF Partnership (2019–2022), leading integrated teams across retail brands such as Officeworks, Specsavers, Burson Auto, Midas, Autobarn and Simply Energy. Our team of ten creatives and designers was focussed on insight-driven creative that delivered real results.

Before that, I spent time as a creative lead at The Royals (2017–2019), driving brand, digital and social campaigns, activations and installations for clients such as Deakin University, Mercedes-Benz, Melbourne Racing Club, Grill’d, World Vision and more. Through working and learning through The Royals’ technology hub, Advance Party, I also gained hands-on experience with emerging technologies including voice, AI and neural-network creative.

From 2014–2017 I was Creative Director at McCann Melbourne, working across integrated brand, social, digital and activation campaigns for Tigerair, AGL, The University of Melbourne, Melbourne International Film Festival, L’Oréal Paris, Worksafe and others. My work on the MIFF Emotional Trailer was recognised globally as the #12 campaign worldwide and #2 Digital campaign by Big Won Reports. I was also ranked #19 Art Director globally and #1 in Australia.

Across my career, I’ve been awarded locally and internationally with 6 Cannes Lions, more than 10 Adfest Lotus awards (including a Grande Lotus), 9 Spikes Asia awards, and multiple AC&E Effectiveness awards.

I believe the best creative sits at the intersection of emotion, originality and effectiveness — ideas that connect with audiences and deliver meaningful results.
