"I'm a creative thinker. My role is a combination of design, creative direction, brand strategy, and all the business and management side of agency life."

How did you get started in the industry?
Started out as the unofficial marketing man for my old rock band - flyers, demo sleeves, posters, tickets, advertising, merchandising etc. Progressed into a proper full time position in advertising (London). Made the move to go it alone in 1996 after continued frustration working
for others and desire to create my own thing.

Puma's eco box/bag. Moving Brand's brand work for 'All About Tea'
What do you love about your job?

what would it be?
Stick to your guns, be true to your vision and never let them grind you down.
If you have one Super power what would it be?
Telepathy could come in handy on many levels.
What do you want to be when you grow up?
