SO, READING'S

YOUR THING?

WHAT I'VE BEEN DOING

With a career in Australia and the UK, I’ve consistently driven effective brand narratives across a broad spectrum of platforms, from compelling TV storytelling to immersive experiential events, strategic print and POS campaigns, bold branding and identity development, and engaging social content.


I also host & produce a podcast called Ruined By The Internet? that explores common claims about the digital world, technology, and social media. Through in-depth conversations with relevant experts, we investigate the arguments, examine the evidence, and find the true casualties of the web - and the things we're just looking at wrong.

WHO I'VE DONE IT FOR

I’ve collaborated with global brands such as Diageo, Guinness, PUMA, Virgin Active, MINI, Barclays, Domino’s, Nestlé, Stella Artois, Microsoft, and Mercedes-Benz, consistently producing effective, high-quality, end-to-end creative solutions.

Some highlights include helping time-poor Australian workers claw back lost social time through the power of cheese; launching a local retail space for a global sports giant by championing neighbouring small businesses instead; promoting the global big reveal of a top-secret concept vehicle without ever mentioning it; and taking to the skies with Australia’s first flying car by delivering a MINI Cooper across Sydney via helicopter.
