Say hello to the team

The big boss. After over 25 years working in media, from running the newsroom of Australia’s biggest selling newspaper to being a political editor in Canberra, Simon decided to transfer his journalism skills to branded content and comms instead. In 2010, he co-founded Click2View and has built the company into Singapore’s longest-standing and largest independent content agency.

A trained diplomat with a masters’ in international business, Artur decided to answer his true calling was brand diplomacy. Apart from leading all of our animation accounts he is also fully involved in the creative process — conceptualizing, scripting and directing some of our best animated projects. Every office needs a funny guy, and we have Artur: head of our scripted video and animation department who also happens to be Singapore’s first, only and by definition, greatest Russian stand-up comedian.

With over 20 years of experience in Operations in the financial industry, Allison — affectionately known as Ally — is our Chief Financial Officer. Playing a vital role in the company’s strategic initiatives by overseeing financial activities and corporate governance, she also enjoys writing and learning new languages in her free time. Fun fact: she has a Le Cordon Bleu Diplôme de Pâtisserie, and still enjoys baking as a serious hobby.

A wearer of many hats, Chief of Staff Kartini is the glue that holds Click2View together. With over 25 years of experience as producer, film director, scriptwriter and art director, she has worked on numerous movies, tele-dramas, filmed lifestyle travelogues and documentaries for local prime-time networks and film houses both locally and the region, as well as shot a Pepsi commercial in the deserts of Egypt. Although she has always been inclined towards the arts, Kartini actually graduated in engineering. She counts cooking and shifting furniture around her house (“redecorating”, or so she calls it) among her hobbies.

Coming from a background running his own company as a photographer in Los Angeles, Erik is an experienced visual storyteller, video director and digital marketer. As the head of customer service at Click2View, his role is to use this experience to help clients craft quality content that’ll be seen by the right people on the right channels. A proud cat dad (and an actual dad to a little boy), Erik is also an avid adventure sports enthusiast who dreams of base jumping in a wingsuit.

After working as a producer and editor at CNBC, BBC and Zee TV, David is now our ever-reliable editorial content director at Click2View. Leading multiple accounts including Barclays and PropertyGuru, he also helms and hosts the Foreseeable podcast — one of our largest podcast projects with the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy. Dedicated to his craft, he keeps a noisemaker at hand to scare the crows outside his window when they get too loud during our meetings. Having worked with Chuck Norris on the set of “Walker, Texas Ranger”, it’s safe to say David has had an interesting career.

An editorial content director by day and butler to two cats by night, Michelle leads some of our largest clients from the finance sector including Prudential, DBS and Eastspring. A well-travelled former assistant editor at an international trade journal, she has also gone beyond Southeast Asia to Europe and South America on journalistic assignments. Her guilty pleasure? Definitely Korean dramas.

After a successful run as a Sydney Morning Herald print columnist, Tim transitioned into content marketing at News Ltd where he was part of the team that introduced the first major rate and review platform in Australia on the site TrueLocal. Based in Sydney, Tim now leads our Singtel, Workday and Telstra accounts. Having worked in the music industry as a street press journalist and a DJ, it’s no surprise he likes to collect records and keeps Johnny Rotten and Sid Vicious figurines as companions on his work desk.

Motion graphics artist, video editor, director — it’s no surprise how Alex has built our webinar department up from scratch, running virtual events for clients such as Google, Tiktok and Twitter. Having started out on the Singapore Youth Olympics show committee, he then moved to Infinite Frameworks before taking on a managerial role handling Discovery channel and its seven brands. In his free time, he enjoys playing the keyboard and recording song covers. But most times, you’ll just find him playing video games.

Skilled and experienced in integrated marketing communications, Chrissa’s our go-to person for all things related to digital marketing and amplification. Prior to joining us, she managed Zalora Indonesia’s social media, growing their brand’s presence from scratch. When she’s not running amplification campaigns for our clients, she can be found by the beach with a margarita in hand. Always eager to try her hand at something new, she’s even built her own retro mechanical keyboard from scratch during lockdown.

An avid photographer who also enjoys making music, Praveen hails from a strong journalistic background prior to joining Click2View. Starting out as a correspondent for The Times of India, he then worked at Reuters as an online news producer, before moving to Glance where he built and managed their data-driven digital newsroom. Trading the journo life for the brand storytelling business, now he crafts social media and UX strategies delivering the optimal digital brand experiences for our clients.

A graduate of Chapman University, JD uprooted himself to Hollywood to intern under his filmmaking hero, Michael Mann, as well as horror powerhouse Blumhouse Productions, working on films such as Mann’s “Blackhat” and sci-fi horror “Dark Skies.” He also worked as a VFX coordinator for the film “Hitman: Agent 47”. Recently, he made the film “Circle Line”, Singapore’s first modern day creature feature; a panel highlighted at Singapore’s Comic-Con and got him featured in the Hollywood Reporter. With JD’s expertise in filmmaking, he will undoubtedly be a valuable asset for Click2View in the years to come.

A strong interest in photography and videography led this Linguistic and Multilingual Studies major right to our door. A former Click2View production assistant who has returned (yay) as our production coordinator upon graduation, Jason oversees the smooth running of our webinar department. From coordinating projects to managing client accounts, the end goal is simple — making sure the show goes on. Proficient in Korean, Japanese and Thai, he’s also passionately learning how to cook different cuisines from various cultures.

Romario is a content writer who is passionate about helping brands get their message across accurately — with the right tone, flair, and style. Specializing in the IT industry, but with the chops to pull off a wide range of topics thanks to his mass communications background, he used to create content for one of Indonesia’s leading IT solutions providers prior to joining Click2View. When he’s not busy writing, he indulges in watching movies and television shows in his spare time — his favourite form of escapism.

A scriptwriter and producer in local TV before joining Click2View as a content writer, Way Lin completed his degree in English Literature at the University of York, where he had a lot of fun examining Cold War French film, high medieval literature and reading Barthes and Molière in their source language. Fluent in English, Mandarin and French, Way Lin ultimately wants to be able to tell stories in different mediums for a wider audience. When he is not writing or thinking about writing, he likes to bake sourdough and pastries; he used to sell them from his home bakery, but ironically the marketing aspect of things put him off. 

Having studied computer science, Edward soon finds out that he is interested in interacting with people more than computer codes. As our client success manager, he is the one we can count on to build long-term partnerships and ensure clear client communications. With a wealth of experience under his belt in areas of account servicing and business development, his adventurous nature even took him across the ocean to live and work in Australia for two years. Whenever he’s not working, he enjoys watching movies, tinkering with IT gadgets, and playing badminton.

Gisele was one of the millions of Indonesians who continued their higher studies in Singapore. After graduating with a business and management degree, she returned to Indonesia and worked for an advertising agency for two years before joining Click2View. Gisele is the one who ensures that our relationship and communication with clients are always a smooth sailing one. While not working, she dabbles in the performing arts, whether dancing, singing, or acting. 

Trained both as an architect and a graphic designer, Rainhard is passionate about helping brands communicate effectively through compelling visual design. Prior to joining Click2View, he has worked with brands such as Garuda Indonesia, Bank Mandiri, Djarum Group, XL Axiata, and OT Group, as well as local SMEs to meet their branding and design needs. A self-proclaimed aviation geek, he also really enjoys watching and flying on airplanes, as well as collecting airplane miniatures and memorabilia.

A talented editor behind most of our best and most impressive work, it might come as a surprise that he got into video editing almost by accident. An Animation major originally, he found his true calling after playing around with editing software while being nosy on a project his friend was working on. It’s safe to say he hasn’t looked back since. An avid collector of Monster Hunter figurines, he can also be found watching F1 and Dota tournaments in his free time.

Video editor, VFX and GFX designer — Hafiz is a whole post-production team rolled into one. With a background in digital visual effects, he has a keen eye for detail and is skilled in videography as well. The big dream? To be the next Park Chan-wook or Bong Joon-Ho — he aspires to awe and appall people through the art of visual storytelling.

When you need innovative design, there’s no better person to turn to than Yusak — also known as Yosi to everyone at Click2View. With a background in branding, logo and packaging design, he is also a skilled illustrator and vector artist. A loving husband and father, this self-proclaimed weekend warrior cyclist is also a photography enthusiast. An all-rounder indeed!

Based in Yogyakarta, Bayu used to work as a manager at a local coffee shop before following his passion and true calling as a photographer and video editor. “Since my junior high school days, I have always loved capturing moments and editing them into a cohesive film. It gives me unparalleled satisfaction, “he said. Thanks to his editing expertise, our clients, such as PropertyGuru and Visa, are always satisfied. In his downtime, Bayu likes to ride his motorcycle and explore the city.

Once he realised that cybersecurity and forensic experts are in high demand in Singapore, Hari decided to switch gears and learn more about this evolving industry, saying goodbye to his role as an Engineering Associate. His job description ultimately acts as a shield that keeps Click2View safe from today’s ever-changing cyber threats. When he is not on the clock, Hari likes to train by breaking into test systems. Doing so will keep his skills sharp, a necessity for every cybersecurity expert.

With over twenty years of experience in the field, Joann is the engine that keeps Click2View running. Handling all our accounts and financing matters, she’s also the one who makes sure that everyone gets paid on time. Where would we be without her? Some of her hobbies include scuba diving and being a mom to two Frenchies — Duke and Loki.
