Michael Gagliardi

Fuller’s Creative Director, Michael ‘Gags’ Gagliardi, has carved out an enviable reputation as one of Australia’s leading creatives.

With more than 15 years of experience in the advertising and visual communications industry, Michael has worked in Melbourne and Adelaide in agencies such as Clemenger BBDO, AJF and KWP!.

Michael is known for his natural ability to align the attributes of a brand or product with commercial outcomes for his clients, resulting in highly effective and impactful campaigns for many international, national and local brands including, Blundstone, Coopers Brewery, Holden, Motor Accident Commission (SAPOL), RAA, the South Australian Tourism Commission and Yalumba.

While he’s clocked up a number of industry awards in his time — ranked one of the Top 3 Creatives in Australia by Campaign Brief, and Top 3 Creatives internationally by BestAds — it’s Gags’ ethical, grounded and humble approach to his work and life that we admire most.

When he’s not injecting his signature creative style to our clients’ work, you’ll find Gags wrangling his three young boys, recording episodes for a soon-to-be released podcast, and sipping multiple double-shot piccolos throughout the day.
