creative

the who

b. 1986, HK.

I’ve done plenty of odd jobs in my life, more than my fair share. They took me to places I never would have gone, they allowed me to relate to people I never would have related to, and most importantly, they taught me the art of storytelling. That’s how I fell in love with advertising. Here are a few examples of some of those jobs that have helped shape me into who I am today:

- Beach boy in Cannes (included seating elderly British women/men, and applying sunscreen to their wrinkled bodies)

- Intermediate soccer coach (provided ceaseless moral support to 10 year old kids no matter how bad their foot skills actually were)

- Waiter at local restaurant (included dealing with pompous customers who thought that our chicken chop chop salad was actually worth the exuberant amount of money they were spending for it)

Here’s a fancy q&a with LBB if for some odd reason you’re interested in reading even more about me.
