Philosophy: Be part of the solution
With over seven years experience in digital, print, events and communications,
I’ve led creative solutions through to delivery for small and large clients including
TCS, Pfizer, Kellogg’s, datalynx, Novartis, Carlson Rezidor and Ford UK.
I’m a firm believer that crafting the right process is part of the solution upon which the
successful delivery of a project and the smooth running of a team relies upon.
I have great expertise in print and digital production and I have managed creative
communications briefs and turned them into successful solutions for our clients. In addition
to high attention to detail and a very successful track record of delivering projects on time
and on budget, I also managed a large team of permanent and freelancers while managing
the client throughout the whole life-cycle of the project.
