Design-led creative director
Over fifteen years shaping how brands show up in the world, from the floors of agencies like AKQA and Droga5, to building design teams that last.

The first five years of my career were filled with team fluctuations, business pivots, and relentlessly fast-paced work that taught me the importance of both speed and quality in delivering on a client's promise.
The next seven were spent freelancing with agencies across London, learning what ambition looks like from the inside. I learned how the best ideas emerge from pressure, how craft is non-negotiable, and how creative leadership means fighting for what’s right, not what’s safe.
The last three have been spent in-house at giffgaff, asking a harder question: how do you build teams that produce great work consistently? Not once. Repeatedly. And at scale. With teams who care as much as I do.
Augmenting teams through technology to extend capability beyond available capacity.
Empowering leadership teams with design thinking to tackle organisational problems.
Leading with bold creative vision that inspires and motivates teams to drive business growth.
Building brands that feel just as good for internal design teams to work with, as they look externally to its audience.
Crafting design principles and systems that are adaptable and flexible to help businesses scale at speed.
Eight years spent inside the rooms where the best creative thinking happens. From Wieden+Kennedy’s relentless pursuit of cultural resonance, to the strategic digital precision of AKQA, to Droga5’s belief that the best ideas make business and culture move simultaneously. These weren’t just jobs. They were an education in creative standards.

CAPABILITIES
Brands worked with
Studio life for me is based in my home office in Hellingly, East Sussex. I’ve found it’s where my creativity flows best – with nature at my doorstep.
Journeys into London for work have become an opportunity for in-person collaboration, and are always enjoyed.
I believe smart remote working processes can keep teams mentally refreshed, collaborative, and high-performing, all with just the right sprinkle of ‘hey, I’ve just seen something awesome, wana see?’.
“Technology—including AI—plays a supporting role in creativity. It expands exploration, increases efficiency, and frees teams to focus on judgement, storytelling, and craft.”
My creative philosophy
If you’re building a brand that needs to mean something, or a creative team that needs to believe in what they’re making, let's talk.
