BIO

LEIGH PATON

I am a creative, a leader, a South African, and a boxer.

​

I believe that creativity is a way of being in the world. I practice creativity from the moment I wake up every day, from my style to how I approach challenges and make decisions. I strive to help other people see it, feel it, and connect with it in a way that’s authentic to them.

What sets me apart is my confidence in my taste and my ability to express how I feel. I see connections others might miss and, with a bit of wit and a lot of hard work, turn them into experiences that aim to make people think. 

​

As a leader, I’ve built and led teams, pitched crazy ideas, and pushed the limits of what a solution can look like. I approach each project as an opportunity to grow, explore culture, and understand people—to express and amplify what makes us unique and connected.

​

As a South African I’ve stayed true to my roots and to my family, who taught me the value of imagination and humility.

​

As a boxer, I have learnt incredible discipline and drive. I’ve learned that consistency and resilience can take you further than talent alone, and that growth lies in embracing the unknown. Walk into that ring like you own it, trust your team and your preparation. You'll never know unless you try.
