Behind every beautiful website, successful digital strategy and custom built content management system is a dedicated, passionate (and let’s be honest… somewhat caffeine fueled) team of individuals that make the magic happen. Let’s delve into the expertise and colourful personalities that make up the ‘Click Creative’ collective at our Collingwood headquarters.
Darryn was always the ultimate computer geek, preferring to spend lunch times at school coding animated sprites on the only school computer back in the 1980’s - an Apple 2E! He still has a collection of early Apple computers, and even his original Commodore 64 computer from 1984.
After 15 years in Structural Engineering & Project Management, Darryn started the Agency back in 2003 with the development of an early web-based content management platform. This was at a time when very few businesses understood what a website was, and how it could be of any value to their business. This was at a time when Yahoo dominated online search.
As Click Creative's founder and Creative Director, Darryn wears many hats. His days are a whirlwind of creative brainstorming, client consultations, and overseeing the inner workings of the Click team. From guiding design projects to ensuring our marketing strategies are on point, Darryn's got his finger on the pulse of everything we do.
Here's a fun fact you likely do not know: Back in the 1990s and early 2000s, Darryn was a well-known DJ in Melbourne's music scene! While mixing tracks might be on the back burner these days (though his impressive collection of synthesisers and guitars in his home office tells a different story!), Darryn still loves music. When he's not leading the Click Creative crew, you'll likely find him spending quality time with his family, including keeping up with his energetic 10-month-old son.
I've spent over 30 years developing marketing solutions, both analogue and digital. My background includes roles in advertising, media, records management, and technology. This diverse experience gives me a unique, well-rounded perspective when approaching client challenges.
My workdays are focused on understanding my clients' needs. I analyse their current processes, dive into data to understand the numbers and then create customised marketing strategies to achieve their business marketing goals. My ultimate goal is to deliver maximum ROI, a focus that has earned me the loyalty of over 4,000 clients in my 30 years in business.
Working out how many meetings I’ve had over the years with clients, I can’t believe it’s in the thousands! If you're looking for creative solutions to grow your brand and revenue, let's have a conversation! I'm committed to understanding your business and delivering the results you need.
When I'm not reading about inspirational people like Elon Musk and Jason Jennings, you'll find me spending time with family, staying active with regular workouts, or relaxing with a bit of classic Tarantino. I believe in balance – recharging helps me bring fresh ideas to my clients. The dirt bike is not getting great use, but that’s another challenge!
Before joining Click Creative, I honed my diverse skill set across various industries. I worked with renowned companies like Specsavers and Sass Clothing, gaining experience in both their Training & Development and Administration & Accounts departments. Believe it or not, I even spent two years as a professional vocalist at Hong Kong Disneyland, so there's always a chance you might catch me belting out a tune in the office!
I wear many hats at Click Creative. As part of the Content Creation team, my days are filled with variety. I might be crafting compelling copy for clients one day, and then the next I’ll be cultivating a fresh blog post to keep our audience informed. This well-rounded role allows me to flex my creativity and keep things interesting.
As you may have guessed from the above content, I’m one busy individual! When I’m not working you can find me up on a stage performing or running after my busy, spirited toddler.
Before landing at Click, I entered industry as a Junior Web Developer at RocketStack, a web development company nestled in the vibrant landscape of the Philippines. After a year of coding adventures, I decided to spread my wings into the world of freelance web development, where I worked through a myriad of projects and clients, embracing the freedom of working for myself in a thriving industry. Two adventurous years later, I felt the call of academia and decided to embark on a post-graduate journey ‘Down Under’ in Australia.
At Click, I've become a man of many talents. From crafting unique websites to wielding my coding abilities to administer website content, I'd say I’m a jack of all trades. I team all of this with my passion for providing clients with the support they deserve. I occasionally moonlight as Darryn's (our Creative Director) trusty sidekick, tackling server tasks.
My day is a kaleidoscope of tasks, with each one demanding my attention. But when I'm knee-deep in website development mode, woe betide anyone disrupting my coding trance. Seriously, don't even try – I've got my coding face on, and interruptions are strictly forbidden!
When I'm not living it up with the Click team, you'll find me grappling with sweaty individuals and getting my butt (occasionally) kicked in the noble art of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Kickboxing. Yes, you heard that right. I willingly subject myself to getting hugged by sweat-soaked opponents and gracefully accept defeat as a form of exercise. Because why settle for ordinary workouts when you can spice things up with a bit of friendly combat and the occasional accidental submission? It keeps life interesting, right?
Before delving into the world of UX/UI design, I spent some time in the education sector. I honed my content creation and design skills as a content editor and graphic designer at Deakin University. Later, I put those skills to use in a web coordinator role at LaTrobe University.
My days at Click Creative are anything but monotonous. Some days I might be presenting design concepts to clients, getting their feedback, and iterating on the designs, the next I'm collaborating with the development team to ensure a smooth transition from design to implementation. But a significant chunk of my time is spent in the wonderful world of Adobe Creative Suite, bringing those user interfaces to life.
When I'm not designing user experiences, I enjoy the calming world of crochet. It's a great way to unwind and express myself through crafting.
