I’m a millennial hybrid senior creative / ACD / CD that offers a broad creative skillset and a wealth of brand, media and platform experience.
I’ve won three D&AD Pencils, one Cannes Lion, six Creative Circle awards, and 21 other shiny industry awards.
After hours, I run the creative network the YCC, the Placement Poverty Pledge and Single Creatives – enabling me to talk at multiple universities and host a bunch of thought-provoking and educational events with UK agencies and global brands.
