About

Hi, I’m Benja. I’m a copywriter and creative director who partners with creative agencies and organisations to create unique brands, campaigns and messaging for all kinds of businesses. I have held creative leadership roles at a number of agencies, where I have led teams of designers, writers, animators and other creatives. In 2018 I established my own business, which has enabled me to work with a broad variety of clients and agencies. I firmly believe in the importance of creativity and the power of bold ideas and leftfield thinking. Our ability to innovate is what separates businesses from their competitors and can be the difference for those who understand and exploit its potential. I thrive on creating work that makes others sit up and take notice. After all, isn't that what we're here to do?

I’m an award-winning freelance hybrid creative with a background in design spanning almost twenty years. So I've got a good steer on what makes great creative, and—more importantly—what doesn’t. I’ve held creative leadership roles at a number of agencies, and in 2018 I established my own business, which has enabled me to work with a broad variety of clients.
