Projects
  • Tretorn X SEA LIFE Trust Launch
    Tretorn X SEA LIFE Trust LaunchTo mark the launch of the collaboration between Tretorn and The SEA LIFE Trust, I managed an event at London’s SEA LIFE Centre to introduce the collection to press, buyers and influencers. The evening was also an opportunity to discuss and educate the guests on the work of Tretorn, as leaders in producing sustainable apparel and footwear.
  • Moon Boot Press Launch
    Moon Boot Press LaunchTo mark the launch of a new range of Moon Boot’s, I managed a press and influencer breakfast on behalf of Saymore PR. From creation to execution, I led a team of six in presenting the new collection to key press, stockists and influencers in a way that would generate as much social media noise and traditional press as possible.
