About me

I've been a lead creative in the world of marketing for 22 years, working in London, Hong Kong and New York.

It's been an amazing journey. Honing my skills at creating, fostering and leading truly effective, award-winning work, across Experiential, Brand Activations & Events, TV, Content, Web, Mobile, Social, Print, Retail and OOH. For many of the world's biggest B2C and B2B brands, such as Porsche, IBM, Verizon, Disney, McDonald's, Jaguar Land Rover and Hasbro to name a few.

Conceptual thinking and creative problem solving are some of my greatest strengths. I'm super collaborative, there's no ego here, just the pursuit of next-level work. Never afraid to jump in the trenches to get shit done.
I find managing and leading teams very rewarding. Creating the right environment and helping my team advance in their careers, naturally makes for greater morale, stronger bonds and better work.
Outside of the day-to-day, I've been an active volunteer mentor for young creatives for nearly 15 years.

Here's a hit list of some of my greatest strengths:

- 360º conceptual thinking
- Environmental, UX/UI and Graphic design
- Strong presentation skills
- Cross-functional team leadership
- High level of emotional intelligence
- Interpersonal communication
- Mentoring
- Inspiring the masses
- Creative execution and production
- I'm also a process-oriented, organized multitasker
