About me

Since leaving St Martin's School of Art to take up my first job as an art director in the advertising and communications industry, I've become a true "hybrid"; a modern media neutral, strategically savvy creative and entrepreneur.

I've worked across all disciplines from mainstream advertising through to digital, ambient, experiential and sponsorship. Working at a senior management level for some of the world's top agency networks such as Bates/Cordiant, Publicis & WPP and as creative lead for some of their top global clients.

I have even been a partner and co-owner at one of the world's greatest recording facilities - Air Studios in London that was originally set up by legendary Beatles producer Sir George Martin.

I also co-founded a bespoke menswear and fashion brand, with renowned tailor/designer, Timothy Everest MBE.

I apply all these skills & experiences to global brands, knowing how to navigate the intricacies that working on a global business involves whether it be New York, London, Shanghai, Mexico City, Jakarta, Seoul, Monaco or Paris.
