Good copy is worth

a thousand words.

Jay Lee | Copywriter
Copywriter at work, game designer at heart.
Oxford comma enthusiast.
Amateur C# programmer and Unity game dev.

I’m Jay (he/him), your friendly neighbourhood nerd and Hong Kong-born advertising creative. Let’s make some waves.

Whether I’m crafting soul-stirring stories or Flow-inducing experiences, I draw inspiration from my passion for tech and gaming, infusing my work with everything I learned from my time gripping controllers and building computers.

From reshaping ancient words to fight the ivory trade with WWF to helping grandmas preserve cherished family recipes with UberEats, I’ve earned regional and global recognition during my time in the bustling APAC market. Now, I’ve embarked on an exciting new chapter in Australia, still chasing the high of creating culturally impactful campaigns.

Fluent in English, French, Cantonese, and Mandarin, I love bridging language barriers and weaving diverse cultural nuances into my work. Born and raised in a multicultural household, I've developed a keen sensitivity to the subtleties of language and a dedication to championing diversity, equity, and inclusion in the industry.

Currently, I’m busy being a Senior Creative at Host/Havas.
