ABOUT ME

 
 

Hello there.

Thanks for dropping by.

For the past few years, I’ve immersed myself in sports advertising and marketing, and not only because I grew up in a slightly obsessive sports family. Mainly it’s because sport is tightly woven into culture. If times are bad, we lean into our teams. But that doesn’t go away when times are good. Loyalty is built in, it’s from birth. Or in the case of women’s sports, it’s right now and it’s not going anywhere.

Across my career, I’ve done a bit of everything. I started out as a traditional creative working on brand campaigns, both big and small, at agencies of varying sizes with local, national and global clients, first in the US and then in London.

My superpower is listening, whether to overworked creatives, shiny-new and overeager creatives or highly-opinionated clients. I value the relationships I build, and I build strong ones.

I’ve travelled all over because of this job, worked with some incredibly talented people, and I’m very grateful. My main takeaway from all of it is that no matter how big, small, creative or corporate an agency, I prefer working with nice people.

Otherwise and outside of work, I’m a writer, a reader, a traveller, a film fanatic and lately I’ve been doing a lot more home renovation than I ever imagined myself doing.
