London, United Kingdom
In a career spanning over twenty years he's creatively led the production of high-quality content and media, for a broad range of international clients. Across large-scale projects and campaigns he leads all creative production, from concept through to completion, or alternatively directs individual aspects (e.g. films, animation or related content). He likes to think outside the box, and ensure a distinctive flair & style is evident in all the work he creates. 
His career has evolved into an integrated, media and platform neutral approach. Allowing him to engage with the latest innovations & trends (such as immersive, interactive or social content), without losing sight of his core vision and passions – storytelling and creating experiences that engage and resonate with audiences. He works extensively across the full range of related creative disciplines (e.g. often moving image led, other times graphic design led etc), frequently being brought in to lead projects requiring a brand development, identity or content creation focus.

London-based but working internationally, he's confident, amiable and highly organised. Comfortable working within a team, autonomously, or leading and managing. His key aims are always to ensure that work is produced on time, within budget and to a high creative standard.
