About me
As an accomplished and award winning commercial leader with a wealth of digital, content and advertising experience within the entertainment & technology sector, I’ve held senior client and agency roles, understanding the complex requirements that come with both. I’ve spent the past 19 years working with some of the world’s most high profile artists, brands and tech companies. The thing they all have in common is a desire to connect with their audience. Whether it’s music, advertising, digital strategy or influencer engagement, I’ve worked across the landscape; managing campaigns, strategies and individuals, whilst delivering time and time again. I’ve a genuine passion for resolving a challenge, whether that’s building and nurturing a successful team or solving a client or artist’s dilemma.
