I'm a multidisciplinary creative director currently based in London. I specialise in events, experiential and interactive campaigns - from initial concepts, mockups, photography, branding and design, through to production and scheduling.

So what better way to broadcast your intentions, than to build an open air, football TV studio on a roof at the old BBC Television Centre? Obvs. We created a 4-part web TV mini series with the world-famous F2 Freestylers, co-hosted by Layla Anna-Lee.

- adidas NMD Launch - futurehouseWhen adidas Originals launched their NMD range, it represented a massive switch change for the global streetwear brand. Famed for cult classics and evergreen retro styles, this was a product that looked to the future for the first time. While still drawing influence from the greatest design cues of its ancestors, NMD reimagined and disrupted streetwear like nothing that had come before. The London launch centred around a week-long creative event hub, housed within a fully immersive, post-apoca

London is a core location for adidas and rightfully attracts a lot of their marketing focus. I oversaw a number of key new product launches in the city - developing concepts for each, directing production for our launch events and designing all relevant artwork. During this time, adidas also won Brand of the Year at the Sports Industry Awards - their entry for which I also designed.
