My name is Tina Eather, an Art Director in Sydney.
My career journey goes from being an accountant, a web developer, an illustrator to a UX/UI multimedia designer. Then after winning AWARD School Top Ten Mentorship, I’ve evolved to be an art director, following my true love to become a creative, running TTL campaigns, from TVCs, OOHs, print, digital to social. I’ve worked for agencies like M&C Saatchi, CX Lavender, Bayer Pharmaceutical, OLIVER and 1000heads. With a passion for copywriting, I can also write a killer headline for any campaign in time of need.
Being an adventurer at heart, I got lost on Mt. Kosci for 6 hours chasing an epic sunset photo. With bare hands I also captured a poisonous snake, holding a thong in one and a plastic bag on another, trying to rescue it back to the wild. Got chased by a sea lion in NZ trying to pull its tail back to the sea. Got hit by a white BMW car and survived a runaway night under the Coke sign near the strip clubs in King Cross. Besides skydiving successfully twice, I also do some snowboarding and Jazz Funk Hip Hop dance in my spare time.
I love working for and learning from the best creatives to come up with groundbreaking ideas and bringing them to life, and can’t wait to sink my teeth into your next creative briefs and building great brands for you and with you.

Professional profile LinkedIn
"Whoever you are, whatever you do – I guarantee you’ve never met someone with as much enthusiasm and energy as Tina. Whether a job is big or small, high profile or every day, she approaches it with the same passion, gusto and determination as she does her entire life. Best of all, behind the Tina sparkle, there’s a lot of smarts. Now as her AWARD school folio attests, she has rounded out her digital and design skills by adding great conceptual thinking.”
Paula Keamy
Creative Director at VML / Former Associate Creative Director at M&C Saatchi
“I’m not sure I’ve ever mentored a person with more energy or enthusiasm than Tina. Both through working together at M&C Saatchi for the last few years, and watching her mature and develop as a creative through AWARD School in 2018, Tina’s positivity and thirst for knowledge has never once wavered. Tina is kind, thoughtful, deeply caring and supportive of everyone around her. There is no task too big or too small for Tina, as she treats everything that she touches with equal care. I recommend her not only as a much valued team member, but also as a friend.”
