About me
A creative director, designer and art-director with a focus in branding and brand experience, product campaigns, editorial design and retail experiences across digital, print and the physical environment. Over the last 15+ years I’ve had the pleasure working with brands including Nike, Converse, Punkt, Dior, Girl Effect, Victorinox, EMI Records, Sonos, Universal Music, the ICA, Nokia, Working Title Films, Royal Academy of Arts + many more. I believe in a genuine and collaborative leadership approach, working closely with inter-disciplinary teams and treating each client and project with a devoted amount of attention to create imaginative and engaging experiences. Beside my agency experience, I’ve been teaching BA design students at the London College of Communication (UAL) and Ravensbourne University and I’ve worked in Rwanda for Girl Effect. I also hold a Masters degree in Landscape Architecture. I’m passionate about design as a transformative force – for people, communities and planet. I am interested in freelance work, commissions and collaborations. Please get in contact as I'd love to hear from you.
