Emily The One Winged Bee is a unique venture into branded content. With backing from the New Zealand Ministry of Health, we developed a character to connect with the hearts and minds of children, teaching them to embrace diversity, in whatever from it shows up as.From the initial character development to launching the fully interactive content, this was a labour of love. Emily flowed across tv and video, social media and educational apps, delivering meaningful messages to children all over the world.

Einstein's Hairdresser is an ideas company I founded in 2010 with my colleague Mel Turkington. It's a bit of an oddity. One day you might find us doing a pitch for a local ad agency, the next we could be making a children's TV show and connecting it to a brand. Or we could be over in the USA helping to develop a new product. But whatever it is we do, it will have strategic planning behind it, a big idea at the centre and a successful brand story to tell afterwards. We also believe people do their best work when they are enjoying themselves. So we tend to have a lot of fun. Sometimes we wish we weren't us, just so we could hang out with us. Our brand experience includes global giants like Coke, Toyota, P&G, Kimberly Clark, Apple and Levis. We have worked out of London, New York, Sydney and Auckland, and we’ve picked up a few awards along the way.
