Creative Solutions Manager at Monocle. Having worked in Fashion Publishing for a number of years at the likes of World of Interiors and Wonderland Magazine, I took the leap into marketing where I focused on my love for F&B and Retail before returning to the Publishing world with Monocle. Vinyl collector and Pizza obsessive.
