Campaign
approachMarketing with brand in mind. Over my six years, I’ve seen brands get lost in the mess of marketing, distracted by the constant influx of trends, fad fonts and growing competition, If working in a branding agency for 3 years taught me one thing, is that brand is the core, marketing is the ever-evolving skin.
❋
EARLY
ALIGNMENTCampaigns never have a single audience. Directors, Partners, Sponsors, and most critically, the consumer, all have expectations conducive to performance and stakeholder satisfaction. I navigate these priorities by distinguishing the non-negotiables from creative latitude, ensuring concepts can move confidently forward.
In practice: Adopting a sponsor’s logo with the flexibility to adapt its colour for campaign alignment.
❋
Growth MindsetBefore I set a new direction, I look backwards—assessing past performance and re-contextualising product-market fit for today’s economy, trend cycle, and shifted consumer attitudes. Producing a set of benchmarks, I optimise for year-on-year growth and that feeling of ‘we’re serving our community well’
In practice:
❋
Creative
sensibilityToday, we see brands either abandoning themselves in pursuit of attention or retreating into repetition and safe familiarity. The strongest work sits between these extremes — culturally aware without losing identity.
My approach to creative sensibility is grounded in restraint and intention. I consider how far an idea should stretch a brand, not simply how far it can. Every creative decision is weighed against purpose, audience expectation, and long-term brand equity, ensuring campaigns feel considered rather than reactive, and distinctive without becoming disconnected.
In practice: this Shelley’s campaign strikes that balance. Watch here.
❋
Market
DifferenceYour market is like the class room, a mixture of characters and skill levels, trying to prove their strenghts, which are fundamentally different. It’s like your product or service, at the end of the day it’s different from the rest, but what difference serves communtiy in that way. That’s what we hero and that’s where I position.
OFF COURT ACE, SUZIE Q
-
For MFWF 2026, Suzie Q secured a two-night residency celebrating Cantonese childhood memories in collaboration with MasterChef alumni Brendan Pang.
Titled Brendan’s Chinatown Edition, the project centred on developing a marketing approach that authentically reflected Brendan’s culinary roots within Cantonese culture.
We translated the chef’s personal history into a narrative-led video campaign, mapping a timeline of anecdotes that uncovered a rich archive of food memories — from time spent with his grandmother to travels and formative kitchen experiences. Through intimate interview storytelling, Brendan guided audiences through the menu as an extension of this journey, connecting each dish back to memory, place, and heritage.
-
The second year running a collaboration with Brendan at the MFWF, our goal was to capture more prelude content in order to sell out faster.
Our strategy was successful, selling out 3 times the amount of tickets -
Understanding the key communication priorities, we integrated Suzie Q, Brendan and his cookbook This Is a Book About Rice as core partnership deliverables, balancing each element to deliver a seamless viewing experience.

DISUKO Launch
-
With a CEO eager to leap bounds ahead, I ensued alignment from all angles through brand essence:
“Cued from 1980s Tokyo, she reminisces on the decade of excess”
Ensuring chefs, stylists, PR, venue staff, marketing team all connected to the story, and more importantly could portray it through their particular mediums. -
With an impressive portfolio of 7 venues, how would the 8th show up?
Sitting at the higher end, my goal was to clearly position Disuko as edgy and eloquent. Association was a key tactic, engaging Reymond, I worked closely with the PR team to earn an exclusive with the golden standard of food publication - The Good Food Guide, and build a list of reputable media nad infleucer personelle to attend our launc event. In the prelude, I coordinated a social media teaser strategy to entice Melbourne’s broader community by hinting clues.
Across both organic and paid, meta -
