Allen SW Huang’s Summary
Hey there, my name is Allen and I'm 27 year old Saggitarius who digs all things Otaku. I'm currently working as a Digital Art Director at Colenso BBDO, an advertising agency in Auckland, New Zealand.
I started out my career as a wide-eyed youth studying at AXIS AdSchool before doing internships at Saatchi & Saatchi Wellington and Auckland. After those cool experiences, I joined OgilvyMetro as an Art Director, assigned to clients such as BMW, MINI and Sony. On the side I also spent two years studying game development, running my own gaming business and designing mobile phone games all for fun!
My next challenge was a creative role at The Hyperfactory (mobile marketing & ideas agency), where I was responsible for mobile campaigns such as Nike T90 Launch, Toyota Matrix and 42 Below's Because We Can.
In my spare time I like to travel, play my digital piano and draw hentai manga. I'm a firm believer that digital mediums such as social media and gaming will have a profound effect in advertising and marketing. I guess you can call me a "geeky creative"! :P
