Made in the UK. Asia Adventurer. Australian Citizen. Art Based. Copy Friendly. Ideas Machine. I’m an integrated creative and hands-on leader with experience across mainstream advertising, digital, customer engagement, social, tech, direct marketing and CRM, with a passion for thinking, making, communicating and connecting things.
I combine strategic thinking with practical skills in art direction, writing, design and production honed at top agencies including Dentsu, Havas, M&C Saatchi, and Ogilvy, right through to smaller boutique agencies.
In Asia, I led accounts, teams and agencies as the Creative Director of OgilvyOne and Mullen Lowe in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, and as a Creative Director of Dentsu and Hylink in Beijing, China. In Sydney, Australia, I've worked at agencies including BBDO, Havas, Ogilvy, M&C Saatchi and Naked Communications.
I've had work recognised at ADMA, AWARD, Cannes, Caples, Echo, One Show and Directory Magazine, and in 2015 I helped OgilvyOne, Vietnam become 1 of just 3 winners globally of the Cannes Chimera Initiative. In between my day-to-day client work, I continue to think of proactive opportunities to solve problems and drive business.
