01 / The short version

Kris Singh — director of Singh Studio
FR 014: Kris Singh / Director

Kris Singh has worked in communications for organisations doing good work since 2014: seven years at The Salvation Army across creative production roles, then Marketing and Communications Manager at Anglican Missions, the Anglican aid and development agency for New Zealand and the Pacific, since 2021.

Singh Studio, founded in 2020, extends those skills across every creative field he works in: web design and build at the front, with photography, film, audio, apps and AI each practised properly. Most of the client list is repeat work, from Salvation Army national teams to builders, trusts and development consultancies, and since 2025 it includes end-to-end communications for Future Partners.

He holds a BA in Media Studies and Sociology from Victoria University of Wellington, averages 11 on the Stuff weekly quiz, and considers both facts relevant.
