I'm a senior creative leader with many years experience managing, collaborating with and mentoring large teams across strategy, design, editorial, video and social.
I enjoy working on brand level strategic positioning, creative strategy, tactical planning and world-class execution around a clearly defined vision.
I have years of experience with global brands in the technology space including Google, Amazon, SCEE, McLaren and Logitech. While I've also worked with a diverse portfolio of lifestyle brands including Virgin Holidays, Odeon, Tesco, Asda, Halfords, Fender, O2 and TransPennine Express.
I also have a lifelong passion for the new; digital culture of course, but also film and TV, art, fashion, literature, music and design.
For me creativity isn't an occupation, it's a preoccupation. Making new things and working alongside great teams to do so, brings me joy.

- Logitech G — Game Changers PodcastDespite podcasts becoming increasingly popular amongst all age groups, gaming brands were yet to enter the space as a format for community communication – enter Logitech G. We worked with Logitech G to launch the UK’s first gaming podcast: Game Changers. The podcast bought together 12 influencers from across the industry to talk about key issues in the gaming community and have some difficult conversations. Each episode focused on a specific topic and the ways in which the industry can work
