I learnt my craft at creative led agencies, such as GGT and HHCL in the early years. Since then, I have worked at both independent and network agencies such as St Lukes and TBWA, most recently spending 10 years as a Creative Director at Adam & Eve DDB, helping it grow to become the UK’s no.1 in both billings and awards.

Whilst there I created a CGI, photo-real Orangutan for SSE energy. The campaign established SSE as a top four energy provider, winning 26 major creative awards, including 2x Cannes Gold.

I helped the agency successfully pitch for Lloyds Bank in 2015. CDing the account from the get-go. Holding the client’s hand on 5 multi-million-pound black horse productions. In 2017, I also won the client £1million free media on Channel 4, devising #GetTheInsideOut for the Diversity in Advertising Award.

As well as the Lloyds success, I have a good track record on pitch wins, including GWR, IG, HMRC and Weetabix.

Craft remains at the heart of my work, creating emotional and engaging storytelling across grown-up brands. And being studio proficient on all types of visualization, including Photoshop, Premier-Pro, InDesign, retouching, storyboards and animatics and I am able to add value to any project, from start to finish.
