The situation: An international property investment expo launching in Singapore needed to build credibility in a crowded market and attract serious investors and media attention from key buying markets including the UK, Portugal, Thailand, and Indonesia.
What I did: Designed and executed a fully integrated PR programme combining earned media outreach, 13 strategic media partnerships across APAC and Europe, a journalist visit programme, and an onsite media centre. Personally responsible for 38% of total coverage generated.
The result: 829 total placements across 700+ global channels. USD 4.75 million advertising value equivalent. 455 million in potential audience reach. Placements included the Associated Press, the Financial Times, Yahoo Finance, and The Business Times. For context, a comparable Singapore real estate event typically generates 50 to 80 media impressions.
I built a Project Management Hub in Notion to run projects from brief to retrospective in one calm, minimalist workspace. It's for sale on Gumroad, but I'm sharing it for free with the Contra community.
It includes a guide, project brief, dashboard, weekly planner and review, plus 7 linked databases (tasks, phases, team, budget, risks and more). A sample project shows how everything connects.
A 12-room Mediterranean boutique hotel identity built around slower hospitality, personal details and a visual direction I called Kokkuri Retro — warm, rich and nostalgic, but never too loud.
From editorial pieces and guest amenities to room details and spatial touchpoints, I wanted every element to feel like part of the same world.
