Educated initially in Fine Art and as a New Media Director, then evolving into an integrated fashion and advertising Creative Director with ten years experience within advertising and fashion. I was working at some of the leading agencies and brands in London, Madrid, Singapore, and Prague.
During the time in Grey London, we won Agency of the Year twice, and IPA Agency of the Year for Effectiveness.
My objective has always been to create a cultural impact for brands through creativity. I believe in either entertaining people, be useful or both; everything else gets in the way of people’s lives. Brands that do this well are loved, embraced, and part of the cultural conversation.
I also believe in the importance of craft. The craft can transform simple things into something genuinely profound. Transform logic into magic.

- Launch of BOSS THE SCENT male and female fragrancesI was Senior Account Director at Grey London for over two years on the HUGO BOSS FRAGRANCES. During my time there I took the brief to launch THE SCENT, Hugo Boss' first fragrance which centred around seduction. From strategic and creative development through to production and deployment, I lead the campaign.
- Hugo Boss — The ScentThe Brief Hugo Boss introduced a female fragrance to the already successful male seduction fragrance, The Scent. We needed to create advertising for the new female scent, a dual gender and male version to align all creative. The key objective was to bring to life the physiological impact of the scent on the body and show the magnetic power of Boss seduction encapsualted in the scent. The Solution Seduction is a highly sensory experience. First you see the person; you are attracted to them. Next you hear them: what they say, how they say it. Then you are close enough to smell them. This is the moment of truth, it’s the moment you breathe each other in. The moment that triggers the magnetism. Smell is more important the closer you get... Hugo Boss. Get Closer. We took the consumer on a sensory journey up, close and personal, celebrating the physiological impact the power of the scent has on the body. This was a traditional print and TV campaign with digital and social amplification. The Credits CD x Cathy Hutton. Campaign Photography x Inez Van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin.
