About me
I've always counted myself fortunate to be able to say that I genuinely love my job! Whilst specialised in branding and packaging, this has invariably led me to work within a spectrum of media, but whether physical or digital, 2 or 3-dimensional, the story is in the telling which is always more compelling told with bags of passion and an extensive repertoire.
I've spent an enthralling 15 years designing and developing brands for major toys, sports and games manufacturers. Whilst establishing and managing in-house design studios within two of the UK's leading toy companies I was able to apply my experience to every aspect of the brand, incorporating marketing, project and studio management to ensure the concept remained true to script. Working diligently either behind the scenes or in the limelight, the brand is always centre stage.
