I have been working in the creative industry full time since 1997, firstly as a graphic designer in marketing agencies, then as a web/digital manager. I was an early adopter of web design and the power of digital marketing in the 1990’s.
After 11 years I set up my own boutique award-winning creative agency, which operated for six years until I pivoted and turned my attention towards marketing. I spent the next three years as a freelance marketing consultant before returning to full-time employment as a marketing manager for a technology company.
During this nine year period of self-employment I was lucky enough to win four creative design awards, which help add credibility to the business services I was offering.
I joined Caunce O’Hara in February 2018 and haven’t looked back. My six years’ experience as a self-employed business owner, and then three years as a freelance designer and marketer have held me in good stead to create content that resonates with our clients: freelancers, contractors and small business owners.
I have extensive experience in the following design and marketing disciplines:
Interests: Distance running. Rock music and concerts. I’m a foodie and ex-chef. Marvel movies. Travel. Reading.
Interesting fact: I’ve completed 14 marathons and two ultra marathons raising over £17,000 for various noble causes in the process… but I’m still hunting the elusive sub 4-hour marathon! Hopefully I can beat 4 hours in 2022 at the London Marathon in October.
