About me
I find my flow in developing ideas and bringing them to fruition – particularly in the capacity of a team – and then sharing the work with a wider audience. Reliability is a value that sits top on my list, and so whatever I am giving myself to I need to be able to do that with all of my energy. I am looking for opportunities to use my existing skills, and (always) learn new ones, to build and expand brands through digital/online media.

    Mystic Osho Predicted President Trump Decades Ago!! (YouTube Video)Over 22k views to date. I conceptualised this video, scripted it, shot it (on an iPad2!), and published it myself.
  • Displacement (The Old Red Lion Theatre, London)
    Displacement (The Old Red Lion Theatre, London)"Billy sets out to sea in a home-made submarine to find his lost father..." I wrote and produced a play that was on at the Old Red Lion Theatre, London.

    Freelance Brand AmbassadorButternut Box
     - London, United KingdomFreelance
    My primary responsibility in this role was to represent and promote the brand at organised events. This was done by building rapport and developing a solid connection between the brand and audience clearly and engagingly. Knowledge of product and brand ethos had to be watertight in the pitching of the company to potential clients. I also created content for the brand's Instagram account (photography, videos, captions etc).

    Bespoke CraftsmanSelf Employed
     - London, United KingdomFull Time
    My primary concern was to procure clients which, in the main, required promoting my services in several ways. Principally through online platforms, I would showcase my brand with copy and photography that impressed potential clients. Once jobs were obtained I was tasked with the overall management of the projects, ensuring work was carried out according to brief. This taught me a great deal; not only of how to conduct myself and stay organised, but how to source, work with and manage resources most productively, as well.
