Thanks for stopping by.

I’m Jo, a strategic thinker, adventure seeker, creative ´Kiwi’ with a knack for bringing ideas to life.

With nearly 5 years of experience in agency and in-house environments, I am on the lookout for an opportunity where I can connect brands to their audience through meaningful messaging and creative content.

I’ve worked alongside some national and international brands, including Westland Milk Products, Milford Asset Management, ANZCO Foods and EasiYo Yogurt - to name just a few.

I’ve also done some racey things - from working as a dish-hand in a German beer garden, a landscaper in Greece, and a waitress-turned-translator in Japan. But back to the good stuff. Check my work out.

Don’t just take my word for it

  • “Jo initially approached us to gain some in-agency experience, and at the time we didn’t have a position available. However, after our initial meeting, her attitude was something we had never seen in a person of her age, so there was no doubt she was going to contribute a lot to our team.”
