It’s true - good things come in small packages. Our Creative Director is a dynamo. Starting with brainstorming sessions and mood-boards, she brings ideas alive. Jill studied her Bachelor of Communication Design through Billy Blue and Swinburne University where she was awarded both a University Scholarship and an Outstanding Achievement Award for Excellence.

After Uni, Jill worked as a freelance designer before founding the Pretty Pollution agency in 2005.

Jill is wild about great design – it drives her! She insists on well thought out marketing programs. She also has a love for fashion and animals.

Jill is a licensed wildlife carer with Sydney Metropolitan Wildlife Services, rescuing injured or orphaned native wildlife, nursing them back to health and integrating them back to their habitat.

The brains behind the operation - Brett was formerly an IT Systems Engineer with over 10 years experience supporting enterprise networks. During this time he earned Microsoft, Citrix and other accreditations including MSCE + Messaging, CNA and ITIL certification.

After years of hands on experience with back-end website infrastructure support, employee leadership, training and client relationship management skills, Brett moved to Pretty Pollution as Managing Director.

Interests include boating, mountain biking and the occasional long distance race. Brett is also a licensed wildlife carer with Sydney Wildlife (although some in the office believe he could be just sucking up to the Creative Director because he fancies her!)

Like life in general Brett believes in a fun and relaxed approach to work and always tries to see the funny side!

Miss Bossy Boots will make sure you have thought long and hard about it before you write it down!

Di specialises in strategy, it drives her planning and objective setting. Di works with our clients to develop campaigns and communication plans. She also offers copy writing services.

Di has partnered with Pretty Pollution for the past 3 years - when she’s not dreaming up great ideas for a publicity stunt, she’s chasing her kids around the park or driving the neighbours batty with her Opera obsession (Carmen is her favourite and she can sing every part!)

When we asked Matt what he wanted to say in his bio, this is what he sent us:

"Writes valid semantic HTML/CSS markup with a heavy focus on web standards. Matt relishes in the challenge of creating pixel perfect websites"

- so we can probably be justified in calling him our resident nerd!

Matt has a keen interest in the latest web trends and all things techy. He completed formal training as a web developer and after graduating, served his apprenticeship at Business Catalyst before moving to Pretty Pollution in March 2008. Matt knows the Business Catalyst system inside out and can generally find a solution where everyone thought there was none.

Matt’s a keen music enthusiast and a soccer nut! He is a die-hard Central Coast Mariners follower (oh well). Matt's fond of a laugh around the office and in his spare time can be found reading blogs, watching films and often enjoys a nice glass of Jack Daniels (usually by about 2pm).

The Amazon of the office and country girl with flair. Our Art Director brings to Pretty Pollution over 10 years experience in the industry. Kat has a wide breadth of experience with POS, outdoor, print, experiential, DM, sampling, promotions, digital, branding… you name it and she has done it!

Kat’s passionate career started off in the big smoke studying on a Scholarship at KVB Institute of Technology in Graphic Design. Kat has taken out many awards in her early years; as an artist painting on mum’s kitchen cupboards to winning Art Express’s ‘Most Promising Artist Award.’

Kat also brings with herself international finesse from work experiences in Canada and most recently returning from Madrid, “con su novio durante un ano y medio.” Kat believes strongly in raising the standards of visual communication and encouraging others to maintain those standards in a fresh and unique way.

Kat loves painting, fashion, outdoors, snowboarding, travelling and being around FUN and inspiring people.

Rogerio brings to Pretty Pollution a wealth of knowledge in Front End development. He has a passion for web standards and a particular interest in Object Oriented JavaScript – a valuable resource for Pretty Pollution.

Rogerio loves music. But his obsession with his iTunes Library is a bit of a concern to the rest of the team.

Born and bred in Brazil, you’d think Rogerio could handle a football. As it turns out this is not his strongest feature. However he does have a Bachelor of Multimedia design and some exceptional coding experience with the likes of Commonwealth Bank.

Rogerio lives in Elizabeth Bay and enjoys the finer things in life.

Alex was woo’d by Pretty Pollution after studying a Bachelor of Commerce Marketing and Psychology at Macquarie University. She believes her study in Psychology will be a benefit when dealing with some of our clients.

Alex’s interests in brand management, digital marketing and enthusiasm for quirky design and advertisements makes her a perfect fit at Pretty Pollution.

Interests include music, travel and the Manly Sea Eagles (the mighty eagles).

Alex volunteers to walk dogs at her local animal rescue centre.

Although Hank has no formal security training he has great conviction, excellent senses and an aptitude and confidence that ensures his success as Head of Security at Pretty Pollution. Hank started his role at the young age of 6 months and quickly worked his way to the top.

Unfortunately in December 2008 there was a robbery while he was asleep on duty. Hank was demoted to Junior Security Officer On Probation. Since then, a renewed commitment to the job has seen him reinstated to his former role.

Hank’s interests include boating, the water, chasing tennis balls in the park and keeping a close eye on clients. Hank loves to attend meetings.

Hanks approach to work is “if the work's slow, have a snooze”.
