AND THIS IS THEIR SANDCASTLE.

Zoe Finkelstein and Raff Gandrabur are an award-winning creative team based in Melbourne.

By day, they’re a duo with 5+ years of agency experience working at AJF, Howatson+Company, Deloitte Digital, 10 Feet Tall, and more.

By night, they’re a softly-spoken gnome tinkerer and loudmouth elf detective in Dungeons & Dragons, who explore the fae wild, make questionable deals with squirrel gods and engage in otherwise hair-brained, ill-advised and nonsensical shenanigans.

So far they’ve graduated from RMIT and AWARD school, won spots in the MADC Wunderkind's program, placed first in the Young Glory Professional Competition (twice), and even helped Howatson+Company win the Cannes Lions Global Independent Agency of the Year with their work on
Exhibit A- i and Bed-verts. They’ve also defeated hags, slain dragons, and dethroned kings.

So, whether you’re looking for two new party members or a creative duo, don’t hesitate to reach out with any live quests or briefs to zoeandraff@gmail.com.

Jared Wicker, Creative Director.
