Meet The Team
ZOE
General Manager
Early in her career Zoe was a heavy hitter in the corporate world. Despite being small of stature she’d force giant businesses to be more efficient. Now she’s WebSavvy’s General Manager, bringing her big business know how and applying it perfectly with our small business approach. Just make sure she gets a break from meetings otherwise things can get silly fast!
TREVOR
Head of Paid Social
Trevor has come a long way from growing up on a guest ranch in Canada. Who’d have thought leading horseback rides and watching out for bears would prepare someone for a career in marketing? Well that plus brief stints working in Japan, radio stations and Outback Australia. Now he heads up the Facebook department spending time working on customer acquisition strategies.
TRENT
Head of Google Ads
From New York City to Edinburgh Scotland, Trent has landed at WebSavvy after a few exciting years living and working abroad. He brings with him years of experience and a long list of restaurant recommendations tried and tested throughout his travels.
ILKA
Head of Marketing
Ilka joined us after a long stint in London where she was marketing for one of the world’s biggest publishers. She was SO positive that the UK just could not handle that much sunshine..lucky for us she is bringing her literary acumen and ridiculous levels of positivity to WebSavvy.
CHARLENE
Tracking Lead
Charlene always wanted to be a doctor, but luckily for WebSavvy she chose computers instead. It’s no coincidence however that our client’s websites are always in a much healthier way after she’s looked after them. Charlene is our expert in automation and all things tech.
WOODY
Digital Account Manager
Woody holds the ‘prestigious honour’ of being the 5th Bombers supporter at WebSavvy. Plus, that other accolade of (currently) being the only WebSavvian to have ever had a number 1 song in Germany. But that’s a story for another time. He’s driven by positive results for our clients, and deterred by negative drivers who don’t give a ‘thank you’ wave when you give way to them.
ALYSSA
Digital Account Manager
Alyssa’s official name is Ky Ren Yap, kind of like Kylo Ren from Star Wars. Unlike Kylo Ren however, she’s very nice and drinks alot of tea. But she is a bit of a Jedi when it comes to all things Google Ads and marketing.
ROBEL
Digital Account Executive
Robel can truthfully lay claim to the fact that kicking goals is what he does best – and not just for his clients – he’s actually travelled to different countries to play football, so we’re not arguing! Robel has his sights set on travelling to every continent in the world and is passionate about helping businesses grow.
SUCHI
Support Analyst
Suchi planned to become a Microbiologist but Digital Marketing made her curious. She is an expert at optimising our clients’ accounts, and loves the fact that digital marketing is constantly evolving and keeps you on your toes! She also loves reading, yoga and travelling. She dreams to visit one new place every year and make the best memories.
VIC
Projects Manager
Vic is one of those people that loves a good staycation, happy to be surrounded by family and friends. When summer hits she’s always relaxed. Vic has been working with Google Ads for years and heads up the whole department, keeping the team happy. Unless they call her “Vicky”, then things get ugly.
CHRIS
Digital Account Manager
Steven Spielberg once cast Chris as the lead role in The Pacific tv show. Well, technically just his hands were used as a double for the lead actor, but it still counts right? When he’s not busy conquering Hollywood or playing in his band, Chris will use Google Ads to help your business shine in the spotlight.
SCARLETT
Digital Account Executive
Scarlett is fueled by frosty mornings and the allure of visiting vineyards near and far. Having spent time in London her appreciation for warm weather is equal to the amount of sugar in her coffee – the less the better! While she’s currently working through her bucket list of local Melbourne bars and restaurants but an adventure in Florance is definitely on the cards.
SAMANTHA
Digital Account Manager
Sam loves snowboarding, hiking and pretty much anything to do with exploring the outdoors. Inside the office, she spends her time analysing consumer behaviour and tackling any challenge that comes her way because when you’ve come face to face with a bear (more than once) there’s not much left to be afraid of!
MIA
Digital Account Manager
Mia is our go-to person for excellent recommendations on the 4 most important B’s in life – books, breweries, brunch, and binge-worthy TV shows. When she’s not building successful social campaigns for our clients, she’s busy building successful arguments on her friend’s podcast which is all about debating life’s important questions. Just don’t get her started on how dogs would wear pants, if they did…
ERNESTO
Support Analyst
Ernesto is a man of many talents. Not only is he our technical wiz and go-to WordPress wonder, but he’s a musician who plays multiple instruments, and has also become an accidental triathlete in his spare time! Is there nothing he can’t do?
LIV
Office Assistant
She drums! She skates! She juggles! Well, not ‘technically’ – but if anyone knows the wizardry of multi-tasking and epic organising it’s Liv. Always keeping things in the office running smoothly and calmly, Liv is one of the first WebSavvians that our clients and team get to chat to.
DARA
Tracking Support
Donning the cape of a digital marketing superhero, Dara seeks days filled with adventure and travel. Broadening her horizons by exploring beautiful beaches with her family and diving into a good book keeps her busy!
RAHIL
Digital Account Manager
Rahil is always striving to be his best. If he’s not working on his future self at the gym or keeping up to date with the latest in Formula-One you’ll find him knee-deep in data and growth strategies! He’s also a huge Harry Potter fan. We love the way he works his magic at WebSavvy!
BIA
Digital Account Manager
You will find Bia spending her spare time by the beach or dreaming of her next travel destination. With a deep love for Disney it has been a goal of Bia’s to visit all the parks around the world – in fact, she only has one left to cross off her list! Bia loves that digital marketing is always changing and pushing us all to do better. Just don’t wake her up too early!
GEORGIA
Graphic Designer
Georgia came to WebSavvy by a series of fortunate events and is now our graphic design guru and true-crime podcast devotee. Georgia is at home in the snow and if she wasn’t in digital marketing she’d probably be a professional snowboarder.
SOPHIE
Digital Account Executive
Joining the WebSavvy team marks a new chapter in Melbourne for Sophie. Exhibiting the signs of a true Melburnian with a love for coffee and live music we welcome her with open arms as she makes the move from New Zealand. Running off the endorphins of a new city and a killer workout, Sophie brings a tone of enthusiasm about digital marketing to her clients!
SARAH
Digital Account Executive
Sarah comes armed with a passion for marketing and learning. She loves the fast pace of the digital industry and is anchored by her desire to help! In her downtime Sarah’s newfound love is snorkelling but nothing beats curling up on the couch with her cat Scarlette, she’s self-proclaimed “cat-obsessed” – we’re so on board with an office cat!
GENEVIEVE
Support Analyst
Genevieve loves all things green; matcha, the outdoors, and Christmas trees. Among these lush hues, she also dreams of growing her own produce and sharing this love of nature with her neighbour’s and friends. Dont ask her to admire the world from the treetops however, her fear of heights leaves her feet planted firmly on the ground!
CALVIN
Digital Account Manager
If Steph Curry ever needs a place to stay when he visits Australia, Calvin will be more than happy to help him out. When he’s not buying NBA gear Calvin is helping WebSavvy clients grow their business. Or sleeping. There are few things Calvin appreciates more than his bed.
FATIMA
Product Specialist
Not only is Fatima an expert Google Ads strategist, she can also speak and read 5 different languages. No big deal. She’s our resident automation lead and the nicest person in the office.
LAUREN
Digital Account Executive
Having spent time living in Canada then moving to Melbourne from Adelaide, Lauren is no stranger to the thrill of a sea change. When she’s not chasing the snow, days at the beach, brunch dates and wine tours are time well spent in her book. Speaking of books, we bet she would tell a great story about the time she was cornered by bears!
STACEY
Digital Account Manager
Stacey is the second Brisbanite to join the WebSavvy team and call Melbourne home. She loves the ever changing landscape of digital marketing and finding creative ways to problem solve for our clients. When she’s not skiing down mountains or across the water (yes she can do both!) you’ll find Stacey gliding across the keys learning Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody on the piano or learning how to code!
CAMPBELL
Digital Account Director
Finding his way to WebSavvy after a year abroad and a ‘lucky accident’, Campbell is dedicated and driven to helping businesses grow – unless you distract him with a fresh cover of powder snow that is! Then you’ll quickly find him skiing the slopes. Now, if he could only convince WebSavvy to finally open up a permanent alpine office….
SUREKHA
Support Analyst
An expert in everything ‘Google Ads’. Surekha loves the continuous learning process that’s involved in keeping up with the everchanging digital world. If she wasn’t in digital marketing helping our partners, Surekha would be a bakester and dreams of recycling all kinds of waste to help create a greener, cleaner and healthier earth for future generations.
ELISE
Digital Marketing Executive
Elise is one of WebSavvy’s creative souls – she loves fashion, dance and more recently architecture.
Her favourite time of year is NYE. The ultimate reset and shared experience all rolled into one celebration. what’s not to love!? Don’t forget to ask her about that time that she danced with the floats and characters in the Disney parade!
NAZIA
Support Analyst
Nazia is a trainer at heart and nearly took up a marketing professor role before we were lucky enough to have her join our Google team. She especially loves how digital marketing helps local and international businesses grow. And when she’s not using her ‘data driven and strategic’ expertise in helping grow our partners, Nazia indulges in her love for photography and historical architecture.
MIKE
CEO & Founder
Flying helicopters was the dream, but once realised, it was clear aviation wasn’t a career for someone that valued family time! So Mike stopped flying, emigrated from the UK & dove deep into business. He built & sold three businesses before mastering digital marketing & founding WebSavvy to help as many businesses as possible grow.
BAZ
Named after the firefighter who rescued him, Baz has been adopted by the WebSavvy team after he was burnt during the 2019/20 bushfires that devastated koala habitat. He now receives 24 hour, 5-star care and is slowly healing and regaining his strength with the help of the team at The Port Macquarie Koala Hospital
