About me
Having worked as a marketing professional for over 13 years in the creative and media industries in London, Barcelona and Sydney, I have developed experience across brand development, campaign and social media strategy, online advertising, event management and copywriting. I have worked and partnered with some of the most innovative, global thought-leaders, including Adobe, TED, Apple, Vivid Sydney, M&C Saatchi and Etsy. Through my knowledge of digital media and a passion for storytelling I can speak your audience’s language and build engagement across all mediums.
