I'm offering
> I’m a seasoned creative and project manager able to carry the entire lifecycle of a project from interrogating the initial brief, developing proposals and guest experiences, creating and implementing detailed project plans and associated documentation and delivery.
> Typically I will often manage multiple project strands and teams on a single project spanning design, build and install, programming and curation, print publishing, digital content strategy and events.
> I’ve overseen in-house teams of up to 15 on big projects (plus external suppliers and stakeholders) and managed budgets from £1k to £1million.
> Highlight projects for me include programming adidas' first ever Women's Studio with 10 months of curated events; opening a popup gallery and skatepark in Los Angeles for Oakley; facilitating a surprise rap jam with Grammy-Award winning Kendrick Lamar at a music workshop in Manchester and creating a newspaper of London talent for the launch of the Originals store in London.
> I am also a creative researcher, trend editor and writer for a number of platforms. I am a contributor to macro trend / big picture forecasts; details-led, product specific forecasts, editorial trend reports and client commissions.
> I am also a practicing artist! In 2017 I returned to University completing an MA Art and Science from Central Saint Martins with distinction.
> Going forward, I am interested in how we can advise businesses and encourage activity that strives towards the UN Sustainability Development Goals from less (or zero!) waste to low carbon footprint, inclusivity to mental health.
