Rhys Sandery
Director | rhys@seesawadvertising.com.au
Rhys stepped out of print-making at NASA (North Adelaide School of Art) and into the role of Advertising Manager at The Adelaide Review. Moving on to build a solid set of management skills at N-Space, Rhys then dived into his own business, DBWC, in 2002. The proudly patriotic Rhys is passionate about great design, excellence in advertising and creating great work in South Australia. He was the AADC’s longest serving executive member and co-chair of the AADC Events Committee. Rock climber, nature lover, clean freak – Rhys isn't afraid to get his hands dirty when it comes to handling client briefs, as long as there's some industrial strength disinfectant close at hand.
Melanie Brook
Account Manager | mel@seesawadvertising.com.au
After waiting years for the Russian Ballet to rattle on her door, Mel took a crack at advertising and danced her way into an Account Management role at Showpony Advertising, These days, Mel’s at SeeSaw whipping us in line with her enragingly efficient brand of account management. There isn’t a deadline Mel can’t make and we’re lucky to have her. The lashings we receive when her demands aren’t met are a small price to pay.
Tess Moritz
Account Manager | tess@seesawadvertising.com.au
Tess tells people she has a PhD in Awesome. Where she received this ambiguous education from we’re not really sure. A fitness freak with a love for Juicy Fruit, bronzer and Robbie Williams, Tess is a laid back sort who makes the delicate art of account management look easy. Just don’t touch her ears or she might... well... just don’t touch her ears, OK?
Pam Watts
Financial Accounts | admin@seesawadvertising.com.au
Don’t let Pam’s serious commitment to bookwork fool you. While this experienced camel riding, cat loving, dog walking, child rearing, WEA teacher has over twenty years experience behind the calculator, her real passion lies in self-empowerment and helping people reach their full potential. Pam Watts? Pam rocks!
Sam Tabalotny
Copywriter | sam@seesawadvertising.com.au
After finishing a Bachelor of Media at Adelaide University in 2006, Sam spent a year travelling the globe. His adventures took him through dozens of countries and countless cultures. The only snag was that Sam was rarely organised enough to carry a phrase book. He was forced to explore alternative ways of explaining himself and in doing so discovered an enthusiasm and flare for creative communication. Sam brings to SeeSaw a passion for communication and a disturbing love for all things Mr Potato Head.
Rebecca Rusk
Graphic Designer | rebecca@seesawadvertising.com.au
Rebecca had early childhood dreams of presenting for Playschool. Her and Big Ted however, never saw eye to eye. After having her entertainment career sabotaged, Rebecca told Big Ted to get stuffed and became a graphic designer. A diehard Bowie fan, she channels inspiration from pop culture, fashion and sugar. While Rebecca continues to deliver outstanding work featuring her own unique flair, we’re happy to let her Play Doh obsession slide.
Cian Barrie
Graphic Designer | cian@seesawadvertising.com.au
Her name’s pronounced see – aan. We all thought it was
si – ann, or cyan like the colour, which you’d expect to be a perfectly swell name for a designer. We were wrong. But, if you like, you can just call her Bazza. Sadly, the enigmatic button collector never realised her dream of becoming the fourth member of the girlie 90s supergroup TLC. But, with skills like Cian has, it seems she stumbled into her life’s true calling by becoming yet another gun designer at SeeSaw Advertising.
