Thai given name: ณัฐนันท์ วัชรปรีชาสกุล — Nuttanun Vacharaprechasakul
Creative/Art Director based in Melbourne
Nathan is a Bangkok-born, Melbourne-brewed creative and visual thinker.
The rebellious one in a traditional Asian family, he chose to make ads instead of becoming a doctor. Now based in Melbourne, he tackles every creative brief Australia throws his way.
He’s worked at some of the country’s top agencies, partnering with clients across FMCG, automotive, and even the federal government.
Outside the 9–5, Nathan is a martial artist, a passionate home cook,
and a proud cat dad.
He’s also teams up with copywriter Ben Hall as a creative duo — check out their work here.
