Hello. I’m Nathan, a Melbourne-based Art Director.
With over 15 years of experience in art direction, design, and campaign execution, I specialise in leading cross-functional teams to deliver award-winning advertising and design solutions. I also help write, collaborate on scripts, create taglines, and develop campaigns.
Throughout my career, I’ve worked with organisations such as the ACCC, WorkSafe, the Human Rights Commission, TAC, various Victorian government departments, VicHealth and the Royal Children’s Hospital.
Beyond art direction, design, and illustration, I can be found on the couch watching B-grade horror films or slaying zombies online.
