Some of the things I\'ve done, some of the things I\'ve threatened to do and some of the consequences of allowing them to happen are contained in my 2010 advertising portfolio.
2. A little bit about who I am and where I’ve been.
After gaining a Certificate in Media Communications
I entered “Australia’s Toughest Brief” and was lucky
enough to win all three categories. The prizes included
a trip to the Caxton Awards where I secured freelance
work with Design Street, Sydney.
In February 2008, I was appointed junior copywriter at
CumminsNitro (aka SapientNitro) and was accepted into
AWARD school. Here I wrote campaigns for large retail
brands including the No Chair Fare for Virgin Blue.
During this time I also presented a cause-related cam-
paign at MIPTV 2008 in Cannes and won “Ogilvy’s Using
the Power of the Brand for the Power of Good”.
Since then I’ve developed, written and pitched creative
to brands including Cascade Green and AMEX.
Some of my work can be found in the following pages.

all-expenses-paid road trip.
