About me
I am a commercially-driven creative marketing consultant with an enviable track record of devising and delivering activity for some of the world’s most respected brands. Backed by over 15 years’ experience spanning strategy and account management, creative development and production, I combine insight- led brand thinking with tactical, data-driven execution. My perspective is unique and draws from leadership roles working client-side, in consulting, creative & media agencies, as well as co-founding an award-winning digital agency. I help growth-minded organisations use Marketing and Creativity for commercial gain. I am driven by a passion for collaboration and producing creative work that works.

With no outbound sales for 20+ years, zero marketing presence, I introduced new operational processes, personally catalogued/photographed all stock, and put the historically UK-only business online. It has since generated 7,000+ online sales, 1,500+ 5-star reviews, and has found a customer base in every continent.
