With more than a decade’s experience on the international market and 25 years experience in the design and creative industry, I’m a hands-on award winning design director working for both large blue chip multinationals and small design based organisations, experienced in leading creative globally or tailoring existing assets to be locally relevant.

​Where others may think an idea is unworkable, I’ll give it a chance to actually happen! ​​
