Award-winning Executive Creative Director & Chief Creative Officer of agencies in New York, Singapore, and Bangkok. Formerly - FCB New York (EVP/ECD) / Publicis Singapore (ECD) / Bannistar Singapore & Tokyo (ECD) / Vivaldi Bangkok (CCO)I started my career in Sydney, called New York City home for 11 years, plus multiple stints in Singapore and most recently Bangkok. Throughout my global creative career, I have had the pleasure of working on many of the world’s most recognized brands.Awards include - Cannes, One Show, New York Festivals, London Internationals, Communication Arts, AWARD (Australia), Folio, Mobius, Clio, and more.I'm dedicated to guiding and mentoring the next generation of creative talent and also providing creative coaching services to people at any stage of their creative careers, from beginners to seasoned professionals. Before stumbling haphazardly into an advertising career at the age of 25, I was a punk rock bass player, a roadie, a concert lighting designer and operator, a sound engineer, a kitchen hand, a clothing brand owner and designer, a courier, and a sales rep in the music business.My creative passions stretch beyond the commercial and brand realm - I am also a writer, photographer, video director, artist, and yes…still a bass player.It’s been a storied adventure so far, Hunter S. Thompson best summed up my approach to life. - “Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!”
