Didn’t bode well for the paperwork. Maybe that’s why he swapped his Yamaha keyboard for a wireless Apple one.\n\nAnd so, music’s loss became advertising’s gain.\n\nWilliam’s young looks belie a wealth of industry experience. While he co-ran a creative agency, he stocked his blazer sleeves with some tricks that have majorly delighted us at NWO.\n\nIn return for choccy treats during our fortnightly client services meeting, William uses his top-notch strategy brain to challenge our discovery process and contribute invaluable insight into our business growth. \n\nHe won’t compromise on meeting his clients’ deadlines—the guy is dedicated, what can we say? But we hear he’s actually pretty flexible on the balance beam, thanks to years of gymnastics training.\n\nHis impressive sense of balance comes in handy every now and then when he’s across the globe shredding the ski slopes (his happy place, if the cheesy photographed grins are any indication).\n\nWhen he started with us, we immediately got him on the tools. And by the tools, we obviously mean the coffee machine. Lately, we’ve been lost without an office barista, so he couldn’t have joined us at a better time.","textSize":"text-xl","textColour":"text-black"}}},"buttons":[],"sectionTitle":null}}}}},{"type":"vizyBlock","attrs":{"id":"vizy-block-rNSYv0d7NJ","enabled":true,"collapsed":false,"values":{"type":"type-0jFlVakMTB","content":{"fields":{"sectionHeight":"h-auto","backgroundColour":"bg-white","textBuilder":{"new1":{"type":"heading","enabled":true,"collapsed":false,"fields":{"headingText":"Here's Greg","headingColour":"text-black","headingSize":"text-5xl"}},"new2":{"type":"heading","enabled":true,"collapsed":false,"fields":{"headingText":"Our very own Kiwi adrenaline junkie has hit the ground running in his first month on NWO’s payroll.","headingColour":"text-black","headingSize":"text-2xl"}}},"buttons":[],"sectionTitle":null}}}}},{"type":"vizyBlock","attrs":{"id":"vizy-block-SRh6cUsbvS","enabled":true,"collapsed":false,"values":{"type":"type-xgBpfxj8HD","content":{"fields":{"images":["141733"]}}}}},{"type":"vizyBlock","attrs":{"id":"vizy-block-gsRmaxXL2m","enabled":true,"collapsed":false,"values":{"type":"type-0jFlVakMTB","content":{"fields":{"sectionHeight":"h-auto","backgroundColour":"bg-white","textBuilder":{"new1":{"type":"text","enabled":true,"collapsed":false,"fields":{"text":"Strategy and marketing have always come naturally to Greg. He is both fluent in ‘marketing speak’ and impressively able to communicate with non-marketing natives. But there’s much more to uncover beyond his business acumen.\n\nGreg’s our resident Kiwi, bringing with him stories of the beautiful Aotearoa landscape and all the silly adrenaline pursuits that come with it—like his (potentially mid-life crisis-inspired) 50th birthday skydiving adventure.\n\nThe thrill seeking continued beyond New Zealand. His move to Australia was bracketed by swims with whale sharks in Mexico, shivery fishing in the Arctic Circle and months of backpacking through the Middle East. Although, he hasn’t yet made his way to India, which is rich with his family history—but it’s on the bucket list.\n\nGreg’s family is his world. While Greg is a natural leader in the workplace, he’s married to a Leo (his wife Jo), who was destined to wear the proverbial pants in their household. He’s immensely proud of his son, Daniel, who inherited Greg’s football stardom and carries the torch since Greg’s body decided his glory days are long over. Greg is now coach to Daniel, to cope with his retirement from playing football and tennis. His golf glory days are still alive and well.\n\nGreg is a fan of many thought-provoking quotes, such as: “hope is not a strategy”, “good is the enemy of great” and “hot chips taste better when they belong to someone else”. His seagull tendencies make lunch with Greg a high-stakes experience.\n\nA big believer that humour can lighten even the most challenging of situations, Greg is always earning laughs around the office—making him the perfect new addition to the team.","textSize":"text-xl","textColour":"text-black"}}},"buttons":[],"sectionTitle":null}}}}},{"type":"vizyBlock","attrs":{"id":"vizy-block-4ClCeplnqZ","enabled":true,"collapsed":false,"values":{"type":"type-0jFlVakMTB","content":{"fields":{"sectionHeight":"h-auto","backgroundColour":"bg-white","textBuilder":{"new1":{"type":"heading","enabled":true,"collapsed":false,"fields":{"headingText":"Here's Tim","headingColour":"text-black","headingSize":"text-5xl"}},"new2":{"type":"heading","enabled":true,"collapsed":false,"fields":{"headingText":"By day, he leads and directs our client services team.

Now it’s time to share that with the outside world.\n\nFor example, although born in Brisbane, Tim grew up on the island of Borneo in Malaysia before moving back to Brisbane at age 16 and attending boarding school. Sorry, but all boarding school stories remain classified.\n\nWith that cultural background, Tim is fortunate enough to speak three languages—English, Bahasa Melayu and Hakka, a Chinese dialect. Actually, he speaks a few Chinese dialects so calling Tim trilingual might actually be selling him short.\n\nWhen he was younger, he was quite the tennis player and travelled extensively around south-east Asia for tournaments. Luckily for Rafa and Roger, he decided to swap the racquet for a MacBook and pursued his career in advertising.\n\nRegrets, he’s had a few. Like being a guinea pig in clinical trials in exchange for a few bucks. Or the free tattoo of a hotel safe code he got as a dare. Many expensive laser sessions later, it turns out it wasn’t a ‘free’ tattoo at all. \n\nHe has been on road trips around Iceland in winter, adds salt to Coke, is a mad Manchester United fan and a former cover band lead singer. He really rocks it on karaoke nights. \n\nDespite all these interesting tidbits, Tim is most well-known for his sneaker collection, admitting to ownership of more than 100 pairs. But we suspect the number is way higher. Rarely a week goes by at NWO HQ without a couple of shoe-box-sized deliveries arriving for Mr Kho. \n\nTim is happily married (well, he’s happy at least) and can sniff a good lunch from five desks away. As his clients will attest, Tim is full of energy and curiosity and that makes him a great member of the NWO family.","textSize":"text-xl","textColour":"text-black"}}},"buttons":[],"sectionTitle":null}}}}}]
