Bom dia and G’day! And welcome to the only bi-lingual Australian/Brazilian creative site in the universe. Legally I’ve been advised that I have no real way of knowing this for sure. And yet, it seems like one of those facts that you know just feels right. So, yeah ‘1 of 1’ right here.
My creative life started of all places with my own agency, a little outfit called HooperNagel – where I won the first of my industry awards - our tiny shop ended up being named among the Top 30 agencies in Australia (Campaign Brief Rankings 2008) which if I’m honest was a bloody surprise. It’s here where I began to understand the transformative power of ideas—its ability to unite people, brands, culture even the odd internet troll or two.
Over the past 16 years or so, I’ve been lucky enough to have worked at some amazing creative shops – JWT Sydney, Leo Burnett Sydney, Crispin Porter Bogusky Miami, Saatchi & Saatchi New York, and We Are Unlimited (DDB) in Chicago, leading creative teams, brands and cultivating what I’d like to call a culture of 'empowered creativity'.
For the last couple of years, I've been freelancing on a number of consumer and DTC brands at - Droga 5, SS+K, Translation, R/GA, and Salesforce to name a few.
I’ve written, designed, created, directed, and on the occasion been a hand model to help bring an idea to life, and no, I don't have an agent, not yet anyway.
If you want to know more, or just want to have a ‘chin wag’ (that’s Aussie for chat) or ‘bater um papo’ (that’s Brazilian for ‘chin wag’), feel free to reach out.
Cheers,
Chris
