I am a hybrid mix of thinker and creative, recently finished reading English Literature at Oxford having got there by way of a Foundation in Visual Communication at Kingston School of Art.
Future-facing agencies that prioritise intelligent play excite me, as I’m a naturally curious person and ambitious collaborator. I am a quick, hardworking self-starter learning the what and how of strategy through doing. I love being a part of teams who care about good thinking; good business; good people; and the planet
