About me
A creative tour-de-force as an Art Director, Creative Director and influencer within the Media, TV, Film, Entertainment and Consumer sectors, I bring 10+ years of leading bold creative projects and high-profile campaigns for globally recognised distributors. Featured on Interior Design Masters (BBC 2) in 2021 with Alan Carr, I am also recognised for ‘Migraine: The Monster Inside Me’, TV Show (2010-2015), Festivals & Expo’s (2006 – 2009). I am the bold, exciting Art Director & Production Designer behind a range of top-draw national and international films and TV, inc. Come Dine with Me Australia Promo, and previously held the creative vision of WBC. I am also an active member of Women in Film & Television UK, International Society of Female Professionals & BECTU. Innately creative with vast experience in art directing, design and digital content production, I guide the look, feel and stories of productions through the creative delivery of graphic packages, toolkits, art photography and promotional assets. A passionate director, who breathes life into ideas, I create solutions that realise on brief and vision. I think both conceptually and commercially in the development of big, bold ideas for creative, artistically led projects, commissions, and campaigns.
