Hey! I’m a copy-based Creative Director with over a decade of experience spanning diverse mediums and trends du jour. My work has won several regional as well as international awards and has been featured on the cover of the Lürzer's Archive and my mum’s wall. I’ve done everything from making subs to researching markets and crafting regional campaigns and writing features. More than anything, I enjoy crafting effective communication, absorbing responsibility, and mentoring teams to achieve their potential.
