About me

I am a strong conceptual creative lead, looking for my next role having worked at an experiential agency for the last five years. I have managerial and creative direction responsibilities and a key member of the team for strengthening client relationships.

Whilst still a hands-on creative, I manage and lead design teams in creating experiential and immersive events, conferences, product launches, major sporting events and exhibitions in locations across Europe and as far as Las Vegas, Cape Town and the Arctic. Over my career, I've held varied senior creative positions at London agencies including Bauer Media and Bladonmore.

I'm a natural storyteller and enjoy using many forms of media to drive fun, quirky and innovative ideas that successfully raise brand awareness, while exceeding clients' expectations. I can quickly move a concept from ideation with visuals to a fully crafted experience. I have a contact book full of talented experts and a relaxed yet persuasive management style with which to motivate those around me. I have a boundless passion for new technology and I'm well connected with development companies at the forefront of Augmented and Virtual Reality.

Recent highlights from this year include designing a three story structure and interactive engagements (VR and AR) for Michelin at Goodwood Festival of Speed and a naming, branding and luxury fit-out of a VIP hospitality space and VR engagements for Mercedes Benz at The Rolex British Grand Prix.

I am competent in Adobe InDesign, Photoshop and Illustrator and a proficient writer able to name and brand for events, as well as deliver a killer tag line when needed. In addition to holding am HND in typographic design from the London College of Communication, I've also designed and delivered government level coaching to the Abu Dhabi Council for Economic Development (ADCED).
