About me

C-Level business leader with over 20 years experience in the marketing communications industry. My real passion is in nurturing and inspiring teams to new business success, developing trusted relationships with clients to get under the skin of their pressing business needs - especially in helping make them culturally relevant - and bringing together the best talent to deliver creative inspiring work.

A sleeves-rolled up team new business hunter and leader by nature, I love building a results driven growth culture across the agency. In my worldwide role, I particularly focus on multi-country, multi-region, integrated opportunities. Added to this, I am single minded about ensuring equality and diversity in and outside the marketing communications industry.
