I am super excited to share this film I worked on as an agency producer for Google.org Impact Challenge 2018. The Google Impact Challenge has 10 finalists with amazing ideas that help community through technology. It’s now over to the public, to vote for their favourite project to win. This inspiring film was created for Google, with the clever folks from The Hallway:- Jeremy Willmott, Jessica Thompson and Annabelle Pocock. Directed by Luke Bouchier from Finch and music and sound by Uncanny Valley. Visit https://lnkd.in/fQ39Cvv to have your say.

Kellogg’s has launched its first-ever masterbrand marketing campaign via Bastion – starring Australian icon Celeste Barber – to highlight its healthier food offerings.
February 2025
Producing this campaign was a large part of my 2024. Beyond excitement working with the social queen herself - a fast thinking, fast talking and creatively generous actor/comedian. This is a big campaign with a mountain of deliverables which will continue to roll out throughout 2025 - stay tuned for some laughs.

First TVC producing for director JH Walker for Latrobe Financial
July 2024
Latrobe Finance launches new Global Asset Fund with TVC. Perhaps the biggest challenge on this campaign was finding locations that matched the stock. Achieved with a lot of help from my usual magicians in post.

Boys Do Cry - Men’s Mental Health initiative announced Finalist in Canne Lions 2023
Perhaps the most difficult campaign I have agency produced but definitely the most important. The campaign has received numerous awards but it’s not all about awards, we do these projects to change lives. This data melts my heart:-
Within the first three months of the campaign, over 41,000 people visited the Boys Do Cry website, 89% (36,861) of which went on to get further help through referral links to Beyond Blue and Lifeline. That’s a potential 36,861 lives saved.
+140M People Reached – 5x the Australian Population, smashing our 50% of Aussie men target.
+$2.7M Earned Media – 1.5x our goal and more than doubling Gotcha4Life’s previous best benchmark of $1M.
+52,000 social engagements (5x 12 month Target).
+51% of men exposed, increased their intentions to seek help (University of Melbourne, 2022). A monumental uplift amongst a culturally conditioned core, more than double our benchmark and 5x that of previous campaigns.
Conceived by CCO Simon Lee Art Director Aldo Ferretto Agency Producer Carolyn Starkey @The Hallway. Director Tom Campbell Producer Sam Long @ Goodoil.
News Update: Woolworths Joins MKR as a Sponsor for 2023
September 2023
Seven has confirmed that Woolworths is now an official sponsor of My Kitchen Rules for 2023, marking a shift from its previous partnership with Coles. The change didn’t go unnoticed, with viewers taking to social media to react:
"Ooo MKR has gone to Woolies now, no longer Coles?! Scandal!"
"Wait, they’re walking into Woolworths?"
I had the incredible opportunity to work on this transition firsthand, joining the MKR crew for several months as a Brand Integration Producer for Woolworths and Carat Media. This project was a little outside the box for me, making it an exciting and rewarding career experience. It was a pleasure collaborating with the amazing teams at Woolworths and Seven—everyone is eagerly anticipating the first episode!
Stay tuned!
