With over 20 years of experience producing for production companies, broadcasters, and agencies, I have worked across on-air and off-air campaigns, including commercials, films, stills, OOH, digital, experiential, design, pioneering campaigns, and social content—garnering over 100 million views in the last alone.
My work has earned prestigious accolades, including a Silver and Bronze British Arrow, a D&AD Pencil, and 7 Promax awards (3 Gold, including Best Production 2021; 3 Silver, including Best Production 2022; and 1 Bronze), as well as multiple awards for the short film Lobsters. An organised, efficient communicator and problem solver, I bring expertise across a wide range of disciplines and deliver exceptional results under any circumstances.
