Creative Director, Melbourne, VIC


I'm an advertising Creative Director based in Melbourne.

Beginning my career at BWM Dentsu, I then spent 7 years at Cummins&Partners: helping to establish the agency as one of Australia's premier independent: helping secure the agency's first ever creative award at Cannes.

In 2022 I moved to The Monkeys: joining as a Creative Director on clients such as Supercheap Auto, Rebel Sport, CUB and Neds.

In 2025 we became Droga5. and I now work on purely acronym based clients – such as TAB, VB and AHM.

By trade, I'm a classically trained copywriter (I studied Journalism ) – meaning I knew my Em dashes from my En dashes way before ChatGPT did.
