Bio
My career began in the high-pressure, high-craft world of magazine publishing, where I spent years on the art desks of British GQ, Empire, and The Economist. That editorial foundation taught me how to marry tight deadlines with high-end aesthetics – a skill set I bring to every project.Most recently, I led studio teams and oversaw large-scale projects as the Creative Director of Imagine, the commercial content studio at Immediate Media.Throughout my career, I’ve collaborated with global giants like LEGO, PlayStation, and Disney, alongside major automotive names such as Audi, Volkswagen, and Renault, to produce creative partnerships across print and digital platforms.My work has been recognised at the PPA Awards and The Drum Awards, and I have experience of public speaking at events like New Designers, sharing insights on my creative journey.
