A British creative currently residing in Paris, France.
An Art director, with a difference.


One could say i was born to do this role, creative conceptual thinking, is in my DNA. My mum the coolest person i know; used to design rock concert Teeshirts, for the likes of ‘The Police’, ‘Jimi’ and many more, she’s an artist to the core; my father trained me in his methods; as a conceptual sculptor, from as early as i can remember. Through my teens, under the mentorship of my Publishing Graphic Design Step-Mother, i started understanding the psychological power graphic design has; on the subconscious and conscious mind.
With over 30 years experience in Graphic Design, with a focus on ‘Branding and Marketing identity.’ I came into advertising 10 years ago. I pull on all my skills in all my creative roles, never forgetting my roots in strategic graphic design.
For what stands me apart from all the other ‘Art Directors’ out there, is not just my craft, or my strategic mindset. It is the eclectic life and work experiences that i draw on to aid my work and my creative process.
