Truth + Story + Art

I’m a rebel, a challenger and a storyteller with creative vision. If you want someone like-minded then I’m not your guy but if you want someone with a broad and open sense of creative thought, read on.

I am a diverse and socially aware creative director with over 27 years of experience in marketing and communication providing direction to creative teams both large and small around the world. 

Throughout my career I have developed strategy and taken projects from concept through to execution across different mediums including overseeing campaigns, branding, digital, motion, experiential and PR.

With an emphasis on conceptual creative and storytelling, my approach to briefs and projects is simple:

Find the undeniable truth + develop a story + make it commercially viable.

This is underpinned by creative strategy, data, insights, vision, communication, implementation and management. This is how I work across all mediums.

I have a hands-on approach to design and art direction and whilst building creative teams for both brands and agencies over the years, I have built a healthy black book of designers, directors, animators and photographers.

I’m comfortable art directing, copywriting, scriptwriting, photography, filming, editing and creating clients presentations and client facing. I possess very strong leadership skills with the ability to manage budgets and teams in everyday operations to meet deadlines while producing a high level of quality work. I have excellent interpersonal skills with the ability to help create a good working environment and to motivate teams to put forth their best efforts.

I love what I do and I’m unashamedly passionate about everything and anything creative.
