Meet Your Marketing Guru, Justine.

Part creative. Part Strategist. All impact.

Brand Strategist

Justine is a Melbourne-based brand and marketing strategist with a knack for turning scattered ideas into sharp, story-led strategy.

With 9+ years of experience across agency, in-house and freelance roles, she’s helped brands in lifestyle, beauty, FMCG, and e-commerce clarify their positioning, evolve their messaging, and grow with intention, not noise.

From brand audits and rebrands to campaign mapping and pitch decks, her work blends creative instinct with strategic thinking to help brands show up with more clarity, consistency and confidence.

Copywriter & Content Creator

Backed by an Honours degree in Creative Writing and a background in editorial, Justine writes words that don’t just sound good — they make sense, convert, and connect.

She’s written everything from SEO-led website copy and founder bios to ad headlines, email sequences and caption kits. Her clients range from digital-first disruptors to heritage brands, and her style adapts to each one without losing its edge.

She’s also led content and social strategy for national campaigns, building communities and conversions through thoughtful content across every touchpoint.

Paid Media & Growth Marketer

Strategy is only half the equation — execution is where it sticks. Justine runs paid media campaigns across Meta, TikTok and Pinterest, helping brands drive performance without losing personality.

Whether it’s creative direction, audience targeting or copy that actually cuts through, her approach balances storytelling with scale — so campaigns convert and feel like the brand behind them.

Community Builder

Justine doesn’t just build brands, she builds the ecosystems around them.

With experience across online community management, event strategy, and her own Substack, she creates spaces (and systems) where connection isn’t an afterthought. From curated content experiences to DM-worthy email moments, her community approach is intentional, inclusive, and rooted in resonance.

Whether it’s digital or in-person, she designs touchpoints that make people feel seen and want to stick around.

About Justine

I’m a writer-turned-strategist with a love of structure, storytelling, and helping brands show up with more clarity and intention.

What started as a Creative Writing degree turned into a decade-long obsession with branding, content, and community. From brand strategy and campaign planning to TikTok ads and caption kits, I work best where structure meets story and creativity meets conversion.

I’ve learned just as much from client work, side projects, and building my own brands as I have from formal study. But if you're curious, I've got the qualifications to back it up too.
