About me

Creative leader with 17+ years' experience across film, design, animation and brand
storytelling, currently Head of Creative at Play Verto, a social impact tech platform
capturing the voices of young people worldwide for global organisations.

I lead a globally distributed design team, shaping end-to-end creative direction across
brand, digital and experiential outputs; from strategy and identity to film, motion and
data-led content. I specialise in bringing clarity to complex briefs, aligning
stakeholders, and creating the conditions for teams to do their best work.

My background as a professional storyboard artist gives me a rare advantage: I don't
just direct ideas, I can visualise and test them early, helping teams move faster and
make stronger creative decisions.

Outside of work: kickboxing, writing, learning guitar, and keeping up with three kids,
a sausage dog, a cat and three chickens.
