I am responsible for the strategic aspects of our service, ensuring that our client brands have a clear philosophy and that they deliver into the business. I tend to focus on the high level positioning of a proposition as well as the deployment of tactics.
I do…The thinking things. I like plotting strategies and anything to do with consumer behaviour.

I bring knowledge and structure to the team. Having been a successful designer for nearly 15 years, I know exactly how to transform ideas into scalable brands and campaigns, and the systems required to get there.
I do…The making it all happen bit.Implementation is my focus, particularly for the large, strategic projects.
My role is to ensure that our client brands and communication materials are visually engaging, consistently branded and that they stay on message. My skills expand across identity design, marketing literature, online and social.
I do…The creation bit. I love to design and turn good ideas into intelligent solutions.
Creativity runs through everything I do, whether it be exploring a new concept, creating campaign messaging or building a design. I focus on the design communication, particularly identity, websites, layout and illustration.
I do…The support work, developing our designs and creating icons and bespoke graphics.
