I have over a decade of experience leading award-winning 360 campaigns for some of the world's biggest brands and broadcasters. Overseeing both conceptual and clip-based campaigns, I bring brands and their audiences together with ideas across whichever platform is perfect for them, from TV to social, OOH to experiential.
I became freelance to experience and understand best practices across advertising and content agencies of different sizes, nimble studios, and in-house creative departments.
As mentor and constant student of the landscape, my ultimate goal is to shape and influence company culture - to nurture a highly effective and ambitious creative team full time.
