We have been lucky enough to work with Rhys for the last couple of years, and in that time we’ve seen him blossom into a talented creative and editor (among all the other things he can do). He’s smart, organised, resourceful - and he’s a nice guy too. And if he doesn’t know how to do something, Rhys is the kind of guy who finds a way to do it - whether it’s setting up a photography studio in an old meeting room or building an Instagram filter from scratch. Rhys also has the hunger, resilience and passion that you need to deal with all the hurdles this industry can throw at you. As for his partner CAIT, well she can be a little robotic at times.

I’m guessing Rhys is in advertising, because the fashion or music industry weren’t hiring when he graduated school. That and because he is incredibly adept and multi-faceted in a wide range of skills that make Art Directors, Art Directors. He has a keen eye for design and takes pride in his craft, always pushing to create work that is both quirky and fun, and clutter-cutting. He also shoots videos, edits them, perfects them – talents that have made him so valued by clients and our social teams alike. Rhys always brought a unique point-of-view and source of inspiration to whatever brief he was given. And I’m excited to look out for all the new work he gets to create.
