Hi, I’m Tahnee —
founder of hello coco.
With 15+ years in advertising and marketing, I’ve led campaigns across sectors including health, education, retail, and government, working with global agencies like McCann and Publicis. I’ve steered integrated campaigns, led media strategy, directed creative, and built high-performing teams; always with a focus on purposeful, people-first communications.
I have led as General Manager and as an Account Director across several agencies. I’ve worn many hats: strategist, team leader, brand builder, and project wrangler. This experience means I don’t just talk big picture, I can get into the details, manage the moving parts, and make it all happen.
Now, through hello coco, I offer brands a flexible, experienced, external partner who can slot into their team, lead key projects, and deliver communications that connect and convert. I bring the polish and performance of big-agency experience, with the adaptability and heart of a local operator.
Let’s create something meaningful.
hello insight. hello impact. hello coco.
