Putting words to work with Swisse
Swisse had the brand foundations. What they needed was someone whose whole job was the words.
That's me – turning loose briefs and scattered topics into EDM campaigns with a real point of view. Taking TGA-compliant launch packs and turning them into something worth reading, across DTC and retail. Multiple channels, one consistent voice.
Warmer. More specific. Very Swisse.
Made NAB more human, less banky
Wrote for NAB across campaigns, digital platforms and product experiences, for students, everyday customers, brokers and partners.
Did national campaign work and copy for banking services. So OOH, social, eDMs, web pages, broker and partner comms on LinkedIn and B2B channels, O-Week student activations, plus website and product content for core banking services and MyCard (credit cards).

TOV development
Co-developed TOV for MyCard following NAB’s acquisition of Citi, shaping a more premium, standalone credit-card identity while staying aligned with NAB’s broader brand system.
Led structural and UX copy across the website, simplifying complex financial information into clear, customer-friendly journeys and establishing a consistent voice across product, acquisition and support content.
Gave SEEK main character energy
Built tone-of-voice guidelines for SEEK to help them talk to young job seekers and early-career people across Australia and APAC without sounding like a corporate job board.
Made a full guideline pack with tone principles, a voice spectrum, do/don't rules, before/after examples, and templates teams could actually use day-to-day. Ran brand voice workshops with internal teams so everyone knew how to use it.
Now they have a voice system that's clear, credible, sounds like SEEK, and gives teams permission to write to a younger audience without breaking the brand.
Made Jetstar lighter to fly with.
Shifted Jetstar's 'just the facts' airline copy to something that actually sounds like you're going on holiday. Made the whole customer journey lighter, clearer, more like a person wrote it.
Worked on campaign and product copy: deals pages, sale emails, retargeting, the full booking flow from search to 'you're confirmed,' careers content, internal comms, a new travel product that's about to launch, plus in-flight and airport announcements.
The tone's now consistent across marketing, product, and the actual plane. Personality that travels.

Made the Asahi website harder to ignore
Rolled out Asahi's new tone of voice across their corporate site. Rewrote the stuff that sounded like a boardroom and made it sound like actual humans talking.
Tackled About, History, and other brand pages – all the heavy-hitter sections. Stripped out the dense corporate speak, lined it all up with the new voice, hit the tight deadline.
These are some of the other clients I've worked with. The work has ranged from landing pages to full brand voices, long timelines to same-day turnarounds. All copy, all deadlines met.
