Jumping in at a critical time with less than a fortnight until the scheduled launch. I utilized the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) to manage a highly complex endeavor involving e-commerce integration via Shopify and headless content management through Contentful. I maintained sprint momentum, minimized disruptions, managed risks, and removed obstacles to ensure exceptional results. Despite tight timelines and last-minute content challenges, my extensive CMS experience and agile approach allowed me to ensure the MVP launch was completed on schedule.

As a seasoned Senior Producer, I successfully led an international team while working remotely from Thailand, collaborating with clients in Singapore and Hong Kong, a development team in New Zealand, and a design team in Denmark. My tenure at AO Studios was marked by my instrumental role in spearheading a website rebuild project, utilizing ReactJS technology to create a cutting-edge application. Additionally, I oversaw the intricate process of localizing the website to meet the specific requirements of the Singaporean and Hong Kong markets. By meticulously managing all aspects of the project, from UX strategy and UI design to development and rigorous testing, I ensured the delivery of a highly functional and user-friendly website.

During my tenure as a Senior Digital Producer at ColensoBBDO, I had the opportunity to work remotely from Thailand, collaborating seamlessly with a talented team based in New Zealand. One of my notable achievements during this time was managing feature updates and overseeing the successful localization rollout of the "DentaStix Studios" app for Android and iOS, reaching audiences across multiple countries in Latin America and Europe. In addition, I led the design and development efforts for State Insurance's "Annual Mistake report" web project. This innovative website employed animation and user data to generate customized reports, providing a unique and engaging experience for users. Through my strategic project management, meticulous attention to detail, and effective coordination with cross-functional teams, both projects achieved exceptional outcomes and contributed to the overall success of the organization.

During my three-month freelance contract as a Senior Digital Producer at ColensoBBDO, I had the privilege of managing the development of a cutting-edge machine learning project for a global brand, MARS. This project, known as the "Selfie Stix" app, revolutionized the way we interacted with canine companions. Utilizing a sophisticated machine learning network, the SelfieSTIX app accurately recognized and tracked the Pedigree DentaStix product in the mouths of various dogs, replacing it with captivating Augmented Reality filters. This innovative digital campaign garnered significant recognition and accolades, ultimately becoming an award-winning success. As the project's lead, I successfully coordinated cross-functional teams, ensured seamless execution, and achieved remarkable results. My time at ColensoBBDO allowed me to leverage my expertise in digital production and project management, contributing to the overall success of this groundbreaking initiative.

Melbourne, Australia

During my tenure as a Senior Producer at Deepend in Melbourne, I had the privilege of leading a significant website design and rebuild project for Melbourne City Mission, a prominent non-profit organization. Leveraging the "agency agile" methodology, I successfully managed the project from inception to completion, ensuring seamless collaboration between cross-functional teams including designers, developers, and content creators. Through meticulous planning, efficient resource allocation, and effective communication, we utilized Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) to develop a robust and dynamic website that aligned with the client's goals and brand identity. The implementation of the "agency agile" methodology allowed us to adapt quickly to evolving requirements and prioritize iterative development, resulting in a visually stunning and user-friendly website. This project served as a testament to my expertise in digital project management, my ability to navigate complex projects, and my commitment to delivering exceptional results for clients.
