I'm offering
I’m a Design Director based in London, currently working contracts.
Before that I was Design Director at JWT Canada, having also designed at Wunderman Denmark and GPY&R Melbourne.
My career so far has spanned 4 different countries across 3 different languages, working at all levels of the design and creative process.
I have a breadth of experience across a wide range of clients. From small start-ups to established companies, with each project bringing different and exciting challenges.
One of my key strengths is being flexible across the creative process, from presenting and discuss a creative idea with a client to getting hands-on in the design process. It is my opinion that this is one of the most important traits in a design director in 2020.
