About Us.
We provide complete brand solutions, from initial strategy through to on-going content needs for your brand. We can work with you on an individual brand aspect such as a new website or work through the entire process during a rebrand for example.
Our team is made up of multi-disciplined strategists, designers, creatives, digital developers and content creators. Meet them below, complete with industry-expected quirky bios, a dog and some impeccably placed jargon.
Meet the Team
Ben Crawford
Strategy Director
Ben has a huge head. Literally. It’s massive. Which is lucky because he’s our chief planner and strategist so it needs to hold a lot of thoughts. He has over 15 years of multinational advertising experience, developing brand and communication strategies and bringing them to market via the most relevant channels for the target audience.
Libby Oborn
Creative Director
Libby is graced with the kind of height even a giraffe would be envious of. Which is perfect for plucking creative gems out of thin air…though we’d still prefer to receive a perfectly crafted brief. Libby is a career creative, working with some of this country’s biggest brands since ages ago.
Jamie Yang
Art Director
Sweet clean lines and design mastery is what Jamie is famous for. Along with his infectious, hearty laugh. An amazing all-rounder, Jamie oversees our creative team along with Libby. He also works on a wide range of projects for our clients, from website design through to identity development, packaging, video production and animation.
Ashleigh Ryan
Senior Creative & Stylist
Ash is an arty wee thing. Heck, just look at that profile photo. Sawheeet! She has an arsenal of design weaponary tucked up her sleeve and rolled into her perfectly formed Apple mouse. She is also chief stylist on our content shoots and is probably one of the only people in NZ who doesn’t think of rugby when props are mentioned.
Nick Vaudrey
Full Stack Developer
Not only does Nick have a passion for building pixel perfect and engaging digital solutions with his full stack capabilities, he’s also an extremely talented front end designer and UX architect. His vast experience and wealth of knowledge is a valuable asset we can provide to all of our digital projects.
Grayson Davis
Senior Creative
Creativity flows through Grayson’s veins, actually he won’t shut up about it. With a great combo of both creative advertising and graphic design, he’s constantly striving for the perfect consumer connection that will provide the best solutions in today’s media landscape.
Ryan Wilson
Content Producer
Ryan is a straight shooter. Which is bloody handy for a videographer and photographer. You’ll find him travelling all over the country creating content for our clients. And when he’s not pushing his creative limits out on a shoot, or testing the latest gear to add to our arsenal, you’ll find him at home experimenting in the kitchen.
Ashlee Summers
Creative
We’re not going to lie, it’s pretty confusing having two Ash’s working together, but we can always tell Ashlee from Ashleigh by her Aussie twang! Hailing from Adelaide, Aussie Ash has worked in advertising and design on both sides of the Tasman. She’s found her happy place here in NZ – most weekends you’ll find her a-top the highest peak in sight.
Charlotte Sowman
Creative & Photographer
Originally hailing from the Vegas of the South, Charlotte has been passionate about the creative industry since she was hooning around the flat streets of Ashburton as a kid. Which may explain why she only semi-enjoys climbing big hills. Charlotte is also one of our photographers, an incredible and celebrated one at that.
Malo Oborn
Dog
Malo is a dog. He’s a black Labrador to be more precise and he enjoys sitting in the sun, sleeping and eating. Interspersed with many pats from adoring females. Pretty much the dream lifestyle. If only he could drive. Hmmm. There could be a campaign in that….
