About me

A consultant creative director — mainly consulting for global brands and artists in the music, fashion and sports industry. Prior to consulting, I ran a boutique creative studio called BeyondExact specialising in art direction for the music and fashion industry, after being head of design for Adidas for London 2012. My most notable work was the art-direction of the David Bowie tribute by Lady Gaga at the Grammy's 2016.
