ALINA GOZIN'A

AFR Magazine Cover Photographer | Cannes Lions YDA-Nominated Director & Renowned Creative |
Advisor & Thought Leader on Creative Intelligence in the AI Era | Industry Board Member, UTS TD School - Faculty of Creative Intelligence & Innovation

Alina Gozin'a is one of Australia's most acclaimed visual storytellers and a leading global voice on Creative Intelligence,the human superpower that no AI can replicate. With a rare dual career blending corporate precision with bold creative vision, she is the living proof that creative thinking is not a gift you're born with. It is a skill that can be learned, trained and scaled. And she has built a career, a methodology and an international body of work to prove it.

You may know Alina from her work. Her AFR Magazine portraits have defined how Australia sees its most prominent leaders, Scott Farquhar, Andrew Forrest, Sir Frank Lowy, Christine Lagarde, Kevin Rudd, Judith Neilson, Gretel Packer, Anthony Pratt, and Canva co-founders Melanie Perkins, Cliff Obrecht and Cameron Adams. For leading international publications, she has photographed Sam Mostyn AC, Australia's Governor-General, Oscar winners Alicia Vikander and Emile Sherman, South Park's Trey Parker and Matt Stone, Ewan McGregor, and many more. And behind the camera for major brand campaigns with HBO, Stan, Universal Music, Sony Pictures, Warner Bros, StudioCanal and global advertising agencies.

Before all of that, she was a tax advisor in financial services at PwC. That is not a footnote. It is the foundation of everything she teaches.

As a self-taught photographer, director and artist, Alina's mission is to prove that the bridge she has crossed is one every leader and every organisation can learn to cross, not in career terms, but in mindset. She argues that our human superpower is imagination: that untapped creativity and non-linear thinking are the precursors to innovation, and that cultivating what she calls Creative Intelligence is the most critical skill of our time.
