She completed a Bachelor of Fine Arts (Hons), and a Bachelor of Arts at the University of Auckland’s Elam School of Fine Arts. Her experience includes working with a number of leading brands across New Zealand and overseas. Always one for an adventure, Kennedy loves travelling and visiting new countries.
Jana has a Bachelor’s degree in ECommerce, specialising in Marketing and Communications, along with a Postgraduate qualification in I.T. With 20 years of experience in the marketing industry, she started her career in an advertising agency before spending 12 years working with renowned brands Torpedo7 and 1-day as a Marketing Manager. Outside of work, Jana enjoys travelling the world, exploring the outdoors, fishing, and relaxing at the beach—her ultimate happy place.
Aimee holds a Bachelor’s degree in Business graduating from Otago University with a major in Marketing and Management. Also qualified in Interior Decor, where she was previously a merchandiser for high end furniture brands, Aimee loves combining her creative skills into the digital marketing realm.
