About
For over a decade I have guided established brands, energetic start-ups and multinational bluechip companies through rebrands, web site developments, data visualisations and mission statement workshops.
Currently the Creative Director of Peregrine Communications, a global marketing agency based in London, I’m a solution focused leader of 6 energetic and chatty designers, developers and social media experts.
I have developed and implemented integrated brand strategy for global brands, and together with the analytics team at Peregrine have created a proprietary interactive diagnostic tool for industry benchmarking.
As a freelancer I’ve been fortunate enough to work with King’s College London, the Royal College of Physicians, the NHS, and a variety of others from an estate agent in Japan, Adventure Tourism in Guatemala, to the London Brunch Fest.
I believe in the power of design to tell stories, and the power of stories to deliver business results.
I’m also the author of “Quotidian” — a newsletter on the lessons that every day life can teach us about brand strategy.
