ANDY HOPKINSON
CREATIVE DIRECTOR
Andy is a purpose-driven visual problem solver with over 8 years of experience in in-house marketing, branding studios, and five years running Zero Nine Studio. His journey is deeply rooted in the brewing industry, sparked by a passion for craft beer that led him to work as a Roadie alongside his full-time branding role. Freelance collaborations with brands like Mountain Culture and Batlow Cider co. eventually opened doors at Stone & Wood Brewing, where he spent three years. As Zero Nine Studio grew, so did its client roster, including top names in Australia's beer and beverage sector. For Andy, building brands is what he loves to do—paired with a good beer is a cherry on top.
