About me
I’m a multi international awarded Advertising Creative Director with over 20 years industry experience creating advertising stuff.
This stuff has been spawned in agencies both big and small and has been used by a host of global, national and local brands.
Proficient across all channels and passionate about creating memorable executions I consider myself to be not just a Creative Director but a modern Creative - someone who can do it all; strategise, conceptualise, write, art direct, design, present and cook 2 minute noodles in under a minute. But no matter what I call myself (or what others may have referred to me in the heat of battle) I have always aimed to provide strategic idea driven creative solutions to all briefs, whether it be for a multimillion dollar television commercial, an experience driven activation or a zero time and zero budget digital banner.
At this point in my career I look forward to not only meeting someone who can spell my surname correctly but new challenges, new brands and working with new people to make more of that great advertising stuff (which really has always been the point).
Some of the major clients I have worked on include; Honda, BMW, MINI, GM Holden, Jeep, Mazda, Emirates, Jetstar, Virgin Airlines, Nintendo, General Mills, Nestle, 7-Eleven, SEEK, Peters, Cadbury Schweppes, Fosters, AAMI, Pioneer, Motorola, McDonalds, AGCO, Australia Post, Myer and Telstra.
