I’ve spent the last 15 years collaborating with world-class, passionate people at the likes of AKQA, Google and Facebook in both London and Amsterdam. Brands I’ve had the pleasure to work with in that time include the UNHCR, Nike, M&S, Heineken, Dyson, Nissan, Phillips and Lancôme.
The past 4 years have been some of my most memorable inside Google Brand Studio. We created everything from Searching for Syria - an award winning interactive story for the UNHCR - to an educational VR experience teaching kids about renewable energy, to retrofitting a piano made in 1870 so it plays visual animations in order to help people who are scared of technology.
Having recently moved to Facebook, I'm now working as a Design Lead on a 3 year old, London born product and am excited to help guide the brand into its next chapter.
I've always been humbled to be part of a global community of exceptionally hard working people, and keen to give back. With a hunger and desire to add a greater value and meaning to the things I design, craft and create, I wake up excited everyday that I have the chance to help connect people’s lives in ways I never thought possible a decade ago.

Those who explained away the lack of female creatives in their departments by saying, "We just can’t seem to find the talent", no longer had an excuse. Now, this list has a life of its own. In 2017, we had 70 entrants; this year, we had 170, all the way up to creative director level. So,65
- This International Women’s Day, meet the 200 Women Redefining the Creative Industry in 2018Discover our 2020 list here This International Women's Day, we asked influential icons to nominate 10 trailblazing women who they believe are redefining the creator landscape. The result? A unique and incredible list of 200 trailblazing women breaking barriers and inspiring change! Only 36% of jobs in the creative sector are currently filled by women. At the top of the tree there’s an even bigger problem - women make up only 11% of Creative Directors. In an attempt to change this, our month-lo161
