Adrian began his career in London. But after visiting Sydney for a holiday in 2001 made a drastic life change and decided to stay on and become an Australian. After a long stint at DDB Sydney, Adrian moved to Russia to join Saatchi & Saatchi. A year later he returned to Sydney to join start-up agency US Sydney. In his two years there, he helped the fledgling agency make it into the top 5 creative agencies of Australia. He also entered the foray of writing and directing branded content.

In 2010 he returned to Moscow where he has been working at BBDO. In 2013, he set up ‘School of Thoughts’, a free course to help improve the overall standard of creativity in Russia by raising the level of training for new creatives.

Adrian has won awards at Cannes Lion, One Show, The New York Festival, AWARD, Promax, Epica, Effies, Eurobest, ADMA, plus all local ones. He’s previously been a jury member at Red Apple, White Square and Cristal Festival, and this year has the honour of being a part of The New York Festival and KIAF.
