Oh hey. Thanks for waiting. I'm AJ - a creative from Ireland who's spent the last 8 years perfecting his Australian accent in Melbourne.

I've put cars in zoos to cut road deaths, turned utes into jacuzzis, forced people watch grass to get beer, called out procrastinators, blown cars up into balloons, revived an Aussie meme-icon, split the G with the sun, and made a nation go OOOH.

I've also picked up a few goodies along the way: Cannes Young Lions Australia (2026), national winner of AWARD School and the Ray Black Pencil, #3 in the BestAds Global Creative Ranking (2025), B&T 30 Under 30 Finalist (2026), and an AdNews Emerging shortlist.
