Hello, thanks for stopping by.

Over the past 15+ years, I’ve created work that’s inspired nations, saved lives, written a number 1 track, changed government legislation, made people smile, shed a tear and cry with laughter. And, in that time I’ve seen quite a bit of change in how we go about identifying opportunities and solving needs, creatively. I relish the challenges and the new spaces we now get to play in, and the tools we have at our disposal.

I believe in the art of storytelling. I love creating and crafting narratives that not only reflect and play in culture, but also create culture. To achieve this, I pride myself in unearthing insights to build purposeful work which enables a deeper, more meaningful brand connection that people actively seek out and engage with.

My work really reflects who I am - empathetic, human, personable and inspiring. It’s this approach that’s led me to create a style of leadership & collaboration that’s effective for us as agencies, and the clients we work with.

I’m internationally recognised at major awards shows, I’ve judged around the world, and I love nurturing talent and leading teams to create human first ideas that make a meaningful connection and build brand love.

For the past 5 years, I lived in Sydney where I was proud to work at Leo Burnett, DDB, and most recently R/GA. It’s here where I helped transform the creative department, win major pitches, retain key clients as well as collecting multiple noteworthy awards.

Most recently, I’ve been leading teams as a Creative Director at Pitch Marketing Group, 20 Something and M&C Saatchi LDN.

If you’d like to get in touch, please do!
