Andy O'Connor
Producer · Strategist · Director
Andy leads The Guild with over 10 years across freelance and agency environments, working with organisations including Our Watch, Southern Metropolitan Cemeteries Trust, Australian Human Rights Commission and ICMI Speakers & Entertainers. His approach sits at the intersection of creative production and communications strategy, creating content that serves a brief today and a brand long-term. Andy directs, produces, consults, creates and connects the dots between what a client needs to say and how to present it to an audience. "My highest praise goes to Andy's creativity — he comes up with the most outside-the-box ideas and then has the ability to create and deliver them to excellent reception." — Viki Markoff, General Manager, ICMI Speakers & Entertainers Start a Project
