Hi there, here’s brief overview of my work preferences and habits. It’s intended to be used as a conversation starter, not a rule book. If there is any aspect that doesn’t align with your way of working, it’s all up for discussion. I want co-create a win-for-all way of working together. I believe a great work relationship is when people care enough to know each other and create the conditions for the best work of our life.

The best ways to communicate with me

• For meetings, I value an agenda. I like to prepare ahead so we can be productive together.
• For text replies, I expect a 4-hour response time for working hours (Mon to Fri, 10am–7pm). A 24 hours response for email. If it can't be responded promptly, a quick text "Hey, I'm busy now, will reply by ____" is appreciated.
• For assigned tasks, I appreciate you to give me a deadline (unless necessary) as I'm unaware of your schedule and commitments.
• For large file transfers (>2mb) over email, this Dropbox upload link is preferred as it saves email storage. When the files are uploaded, Dropbox will notify me via email.

Terminology I use

• ETD = Estimated time delivery
• TBD = To be determined
• KIV = Keep in view (for next time)
• ASAP = as soon as possible
• SB = Storyboard

The timing I like to work (currently NZ time)

• My work day starts at 9am.
• Mornings are for deep creative work — writing, brainstorming, designing, etc.
• Meetings are scheduled from 1pm - 6pm, unless otherwise necessary.
