About me
Creative organiser and project manager who loves working with spaces and systems, experienced in event planning and production, operations development and launch management. Trained in art and design, and with a focused and systems-orientated mind-set, I specialise in bridging the gap between imaginative, visionary organisations and continuing commercial viability. Thanks to working with clients in a broad range of sectors, I have become highly adaptable, adept at identifying and resolving systemic weaknesses and skilled at motivating teams. As a director of Zetteler, my work is largely concentrated in the art, design and creative sectors, developing and implementing practical growth strategies for both our clients and our own business.

    London, United KingdomFull Time
    Founded in London in 2012, Zetteler is a creative communications agency specialising in design, innovation, architecture, art, technology and other sectors where we feel we can make a difference. I initially came to Zetteler on a freelance basis to help the agency develop robust internal project-management systems as it expanded in size and scope. The role evolved to encompass day-to-day operations and business strategy, and after two years, I was brought on board permanently as Co-Director. As well as managing and developing our internal systems, website and team performance, my role includes production management of Zetteler Films shoots around the world.
