As a seasoned creative, marketing and growth leader with more than three decades of international experience, I bring strategic vision, hands-on creative expertise, commercial understanding and a deep belief in the power of ideas to drive growth, shape culture and build meaningful connections with audiences.
My career has taken me across Europe and North America, leading creative teams and delivering award-winning work across advertising, brand, marketing, content, digital and experience design. Most recently, I served as Chief Creative Officer at Gallagher & Associates, where my responsibilities extended beyond creative leadership into marketing, business development and growth. Acting across CCO, CMO and CGO responsibilities, I helped guide the creative vision for major museum, cultural, brand and visitor experience projects, while also strengthening the company’s positioning, supporting new business growth, shaping pitch strategy, authoring proposals and helping teams deliver work with greater clarity, ambition and impact.
I am passionate about growing companies through creativity. I believe creative leadership is not simply about producing strong work; it is about building the conditions for growth — clearer positioning, stronger stories, sharper offers, more compelling pitches, better teams and ideas that help organisations move forward with confidence. At G&A, this included helping develop and steward the Experience is Everything platform, a strategic expression of the company’s belief that experience is one of the most powerful forms of communication.
My leadership style is grounded in collaboration, trust and creative rigour. I believe the best ideas emerge when diverse perspectives are brought together with a clear sense of purpose. From strategy and concept development through to execution, I take an active role in shaping the creative process, ensuring that ideas are not only distinctive and beautifully crafted, but also strategically sound, commercially effective and capable of creating real momentum.
Throughout my career, I have helped create agency-defining campaigns, communication platforms, brand systems and experience-led storytelling for respected organisations and global brands across North America and Europe. I am particularly interested in the space where brand, culture, technology and human experience meet — and increasingly in the role of AI-powered campaigns, intelligent creative systems and internal AI models that help teams work smarter, generate sharper thinking and unlock new forms of engagement.
Having recently returned to my home city of London after many years living and working internationally, I bring both a global perspective and a renewed energy for the UK creative landscape. I am now looking to bring my experience across creative leadership, marketing, growth and innovation to a forward-thinking organisation ready for transformation, momentum and work that genuinely resonates.
