What I do at Creative

I am responsible for the overall smooth running and operational side of the agency including creative, finance, admin and everything in between!

The best thing about my job

The flexibility to work in different facets of the business but mostly the satisfaction of seeing our team develop great solutions for our clients.

Career highlight

Being given the opportunity to manage a large retail client at the age of 20 that gave me the best possible grounding into the industry. It showed me that anything was possible in spite of ridiculously tight deadlines and rapidly moving goal posts - it’s amazing what pizza, late nights and the camaraderie of a great group of people can achieve!

Favourite ad of all time

I would have to say the original Apple Think Different ad. It’s as effective today as it was 20-odd years ago when it was first produced.

I barrack for

The Dockers and Monocle magazine.

Dream holiday destination

Tuscany, Italy.

To relax I like to

Escape on holiday to somewhere from Mr and Mrs Smith.
