About me
Chris started his career in Australia in the late 90’s and love took him to Tokyo in the early millennium. After 10 years of blood, sweat, tears and beers with the Ogilvy Group, Chris joined ADK Global as Regional ECD in January 2016. In his creative career, Chris has collaborated with artists and designers from around the world on award winning digital/innovation projects and won accolades across multiple advertising and design shows globally and locally. Chris has designed and exhibited award winning furniture in Tokyo, Paris and Italy and played to sold-out crowds in an Indy rock band.
