With origins in social and digital, Alycia understands how ideas can spread. She spends her time understanding the cultural problem of a brief so that the output (idea and execution) will be sure to get the attention of those it's intended for.
Tegan has led agency teams at Ogilvy and Ketchum, and been an APAC regional lead on the inside at entertainment powerhouse Activision Blizzard, so understands how to navigate complex organisational challenges to deliver results.
But when you work with us, we make a commitment to look after you, both personally and professionally. We aren’t all born Hopeful Monsters, so we invest heavily in developing our people into happy, healthy, hungry monsters through one of the most innovative development programs in the industry.
