I'm offering
I am a Marketeer who has specialised in Digital for over a decade. I have 20 years experience working for global household brand names such as Orange, Unilever, Tesco, Disney and L’Oréal. My passion for communications and my entrepreneurial spirit have led me to be involved in a variety of projects outside of my main roles. This desire to work on a variety of brands and projects convinced me to leave the corporate world and set up my own consultancy in 2015. My mission to spread the digital word and upskill workforces who may have trained in their specialism in the days pre-internet, led me to develop my own training offering and I am also an Expert Tutor for the Google Squared Programme.
In 2018 I partnered with Louis Saha to develop AxisStars, a private platform for Stars from the worlds of Sport & Entertainment to connect with trusted brands and service providers.
