Tee Hussain is a London-born creative strategist and storyteller with a deep belief in the power of culture to shift narratives, challenge norms, and build brands that matter. A recent graduate of the University of the Arts London and recipient of the prestigious Nick Brien Scholarship for Advertising, he represents a new generation of talent grounded in both lived experience and sharp creative thinking.
Born and raised in Tower Hamlets in a British-Sylheti household, Tee's path into the creative industries has been anything but conventional. His adolescence was marked by instability — housing insecurity, mental health struggles and a formal education system that rarely saw his potential. But rather than closing doors, these experiences became the foundation for his drive. He began his creative journey as a musician, producing and self-releasing music that told stories many people weren’t ready to hear. That same instinct for emotion, narrative, and cultural nuance now informs every brief he touches.
Today, Tee works at the intersection of advertising, cultural insight, and social storytelling. His campaigns are known for their honesty and emotional intelligence, drawing on the complexities of identity, migration, class, and community. he doesn’t just aim for relevance — he aims for resonance.
In 2025, TEE will attend the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity, where he’ll join a global cohort of emerging voices pushing the industry forward. With a background that spans music, media, and social commentary, he brings a rare blend of sensitivity and strategy to the table — someone equally comfortable analysing a cultural trend as he is building a 360° campaign around it.
At his core, Tee is a connector: of people, of ideas, of unseen truths. He is committed to crafting work that is not only commercially sharp, but culturally meaningful — work that reflects the world as it is, while nudging it closer to what it could be.
