our team
At Refresh Marketing, we’re a tight-knit team of creative word nerds.
We love puns and alliterations. We debate about hyphens. And for us, nothing hits the spot better than nailing the perfect headline. But most importantly, we’re a group of professionals who support each other through thick and thin – and do our best for every client.
Vikki
Director, Writing Skills Trainer & Content Strategist
When I was little, I wanted to be:
A kindy teacher
A marketer born and bred, I decided to go out on my own after 10 years as an employee in big corporations. (Turns out, bureaucracy and politics are overrated.)
In those early years, I freelanced by day – and lectured in marketing at Monash by night.
Then as my client base grew, I took the plunge and hired other writers to give me a helping hand. Years on, and Refresh Marketing is now a bustling agency with a small team and countless projects always on the go.
Today, as Director, I focus mostly on client strategy, team leadership, account management and business development.
I’m also out and about at least one day a week presenting writing skills workshops to corporate teams and individuals.
A mad dog lover since forever, I’m especially partial to Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. And a tad obsessed with my little tricolour girl, Peggy – the princess of my household.

Tori
General Manager &
Lead Copywriter
When I was little, I wanted to be:
An ice cream chef
With dual qualifications in science and journalism, I have a knack for understanding and communicating complex ideas.
My career began in publishing as an Editor for a range of trade publications spanning oil, gas and engineering.
I later moved into communications, specialising in content and engagement strategy. This included community buy-in campaigns for state government – and crisis comms on topics such as whale strandings and bushfires.
Then, after meeting Vikki, I was keen to experience agency life. We connected instantly – and the huge diversity of projects at Refresh Marketing excited me.
Now as a senior team member, I love building strong partnerships with our clients, solving their problems and helping their businesses grow.
A self-confessed plant lady, outside of work you can find me propagating plants for my ever-expanding indoor jungle.

Sara
Senior Copywriter
When I was little, I wanted to be:
Nikki Webster
A long-standing member of the Refresh team, I bring scriptwriting and digital marketing experience from Brisbane to New York City. With qualifications in media and communications, psychology and philosophy, I’m a curious and critical thinker who loves crafting words to influence human behaviour. I’m also a self-professed backgammon pro and I like to shake my hips like Shakira.
Maddy
Copywriter & Marketing Coordinator
When I was little, I wanted to be:
A movie theatre usher
As a recent marketing graduate, I bring creative writing and design skills to the team. I’m fascinated by consumer behaviour and how it shapes communications strategy and copywriting. Always abreast of trends and culture, I believe inspiration is all around. We just have to keep our eyes and ears open! When not at work, I love to draw. And I take my op shopping very seriously – always buying second-hand wherever possible.
Natalie
Copywriter
When I was little, I wanted to be:
A mermaid
I was a broadcast journalist for years before moving into the world of digital content and marketing. As an avid story lover, I’m always excited about writing content that is personal, relevant, and easy to understand, no matter the topic or industry. I love word games and puns. I also dabble a bit in art. But mostly I try to survive my kids’ demands and build my secret choc stash.
Zach
Copywriter
When I was little, I wanted to be:
A singer
As a former YouTube content creator, I bring a strong sense of voice and tone to my writing – with just a little bit of cheek. With qualifications in professional writing and editing, I’m deeply fascinated by psychology and anything surrounding mental health and personal development. I love music and books. And, I make a wicked latte.
