About me

Avish was born in South Africa and now lives in Sydney, Australia. He is the joint Chief Creative Officer at Saatchi & Saatchi Sydney.

Avish has plied his trade over the last 20 years on three continents and has worked on some of the world's biggest brands, including Tourism Australia, Fox Sports, Nando's, Tourism New Zealand, MINI and Virgin Money. Notably, his campaign for Go Gentle Australia, 'Stop the Horror', contributed to legislative change in the State of Victoria by giving terminally ill patients the right to voluntary assisted dying.

Avish's work has been recognised over 200 times at D&AD, Cannes, One Show, AWARD, The Loeries, the Australian Effies and various other industry shows.

Beyond the world of advertising, Avish is an avid ceramicist, a diver and, occasionally, a runner (although his knees believe this running thing will be a temporary love-affair).
