👋 Meet Chip.

Denise Chippindale is an experienced Marketing & Brand Director with over 13 years of global marketing experience. For the past 8 years, Denise (Chip) has been VP of International Marketing, managing teams across APAC, EMEA and Canada.

Chip is skilled across Acquisition Marketing, Partnership Marketing, Regional & Field Marketing Strategy. Chip very occasionally dusts off her design skills depending if you ask nicely (and shout a beer)

When she’s not running between meetings & meet ups, you’ll see her ✏️ drawing, cuddling her pup Ted, 📗 studying and at a bar 🍻 (maybe all together)

Career Timeline

My natural passion is managing and inspiring teams at companies that foster growth and creative freedom.

Currently, I’m with the wonderful team at CommBank

You’ll find me curating the Adobe Live APAC program as I work alongside various clients including Studio Aquilo and ANZ.

To help with the freelance move, I’ve curated a community called Mids; join our Whatsapp Group to keep up to date with upcoming meet-ups.
