together beautifully

Experience

In a career spanning three decades my experience goes a long way. Clients get to benefit from every experience I’ve ever had. I developed my career from the early days of internet marketing and have grown with it. I combine old school marketing skills with the latest multichannel know-how.  I’ve worked client side, agency side and run my own branding consultancy.

I’ve helped communications work above the line, below the line and internally. I know how to deliver projects, managing outputs, working on time and to budget.  Whatever your project there’s’ a good chance I’ve worked on it or something like it.  The experience I bring from other sectors and industries can have real relevance and bring you new insights and a fresh perspective on your current work. Here are just a few of the milestone projects I’ve worked on over the years:
