I’ve always loved to produce and create. It started
back in the day with a passion for Lego and the
ability to turn my ideas into tangible reality. Now
my Lego bricks are mainly digital products but my
eagerness for taking a nothing and producing it into
a something is ever-present.
For 10 years I’ve grown my talent as a creative
problem solver and production leader across projects
including new product dev, builds, video and
content. My skills are diverse and I’ve worn many
hats as an art director, designer, developer,
copywriter and tea maker. As a result of this I have
the savvy ability to not only generate informed
creative solutions but also work with, and conduct,
multi-disciplined teams to do what it takes to
deliver on brief. My unique skill-set enables me to
add hands-on value to projects, better communicate
with all parties and allows me the foresight to
mitigate and manage risk.
I understand Agile vs Waterfall and know how best
practice can be used to service requirements whilst
producing a deliverable that’s as outstanding as it
can be against time and money. Over the years I’ve
developed an unflappable delivery acumen that
alleviates issues and embraces evolution as I have
the knowledge and experience to appreciate that
challenges and change are baked into the DNA of
any project.
My passion is to produce, create and feel great and
it’s this enthusiasm and pride that I channel into all
elements of my working life from stakeholder
meetings to Friday burritos.

Full time
Creating and bringing ideas to life is not just a
work thing for me. When I’m not delivering for
clients I’m busy collaborating with like minded
folk to build on my skills and have plenty of fun.
More on these collaborations can be seen here
where I produce, create and make noise under
the alias: DalmatianCreation.com
Music and the way it makes me feel is really
important to me. During my time in London I
was a commercial DJ with a stint at the Ministry
Of Sound. My tastes broaden with age and I
thoroughly enjoy discovering new sounds.
I’m an outdoor type and enjoy cycling,
swimming and anything involving a board.
When not outside I enjoy getting creative in the
kitchen whilst listening to the radio.
