job
Founder/Director
2fold Design Ltd.
I formed 2fold Design Limited, along with my brother, as we spotted a gap in the market for a specialised agency handling the design and production of film campaigns in retail. This included all costings, design, artworking and handling parts of the production.
We soon expanded and created a reputation of a company with great integrity and a very quick turnaround when it came to very short deadlines.
Within a year we were dealing with Paramount Pictures, Disney, Columbia Tristar (now part of Sony Entertainment), Warner Brothers and Proctor and Gamble, Matalan and Jeff Banks.
We managed to achieve a healthy turnover of £240k in our first trading year, increasing year on year by around 5-8%.
My responsibilities as a partner would range from new business, account management, costing, handling creative and print including literature,
merchandising, Point of Sale and experiential projects.
I have also handled and worked on creative for some other great accounts such as BBC, Channel 4, E1 Entertainment, Hamley and Lionsgate.

The Comedy Lounge.
A bit of a side hustle! I was the founder and host of a new Comedy Club consisting of great food, accompanied by a comedy pianist, followed by
four amazing Comedians on a Thursday night. This definitely helped me with the confidence to speak in front of crowds!
