Hi, I’m Drishti. Or DK.
I’m a New York–based creative who's spent the last decade making ads.
I started at DDB Singapore, then became the first art director at VCCP Singapore – the agency’s first office in Asia. Many campaigns and one BIG move later, I landed at VCCP New York.
I’ve worked on campaigns for global giants and local favourites. White Claw, Cathay Pacific, Audi, Deliveroo, J&J, Heineken and The Straits Times, to name a few.
And it’s been fun.
Some highlights include helping friends roast each other for White Claw, rebranding Indonesia’s biggest telco, making stupid content for Singapore’s first hard seltzer, and creating Cathay Pacific’s latest inflight safety video.
So, keep an eye out the next time you’re flying to Hong Kong. I’ll be the one quietly hoping you don’t skip it.
