  • FreeNow
    FreeNowFree now + hotboozapalooza - November 2021 ​The Brief It’s time to discover the city again. Free Now wanted to heighten awareness and engagement of Free Now, and encourage users to use Free Now as a means of getting around London across their different modes of travel - London black cab, a private ride or an eScooter.

    SchweppesLifting The Nation's Spirits The Brief Christmas 2020 was a bit of a write-off, wasn't it?

What we did For the very last issue of Time Out magazine we created an incredibly in-depth co-branded coverwrap with TfL. After almost 13 versions and over 150 emails later
  • The London Eye
    The London EyeReinventing the Wheel - April 2022 The brief Everyone knows and loves the iconic London Eye, you can’t miss it gracing London’s skyline with its 32 pods (one for each of the city's 32 boroughs if you didn’t know!). But therein lies the problem; everyone is used to it, everyone takes it for granted! The London Eye is truly iconic, so we need to remind people that it's not ‘touristy’ or ‘something you did when it opened’. The insight We’ve been deprived of shared experiences and exploring the ci
  • The Ocean Cleanup
    The Ocean CleanupThe brief: How do we tackle the impact of single-use face masks on our oceans? The big idea: Turn every disposable face mask into an advertising campaign. The execution: Dave Trott espoused the memorable simplicity of public health campaigns. “If you want people to take action and change behaviour - you need to get to the point. Make it simple, make it memorable.” FACE TO WASTE. Simple. Memorable

    Media Business Course 2019Media Business Course
    In 2019 I was selected by my superiors at The Guardian to attend the renowned Media Business Course at The Grand Hotel in Brighton. All candidates were split up into groups of complete strangers. In just five days we had to become team mates and work together (often until the early hours of the morning) to respond to a live brief for the National Careers Service. We had to appeal to a young audience and convince them to spend their summer holidays with NCS, gaining vital experience to ready them for work life. After pitching our ideas to a group of some of the most senior people within the Media Industry we were shortlisted for the final, where we then pitched on stage to the client and entire course, including all candidates. Our team finished runners up! The overall experience I gained from the event was incredible.
