I'm a creative/art director and before you ask
YES, I HAVE A BEARD BUT NO TATTOOS.
In my time I’ve coaxed a wild chicken onto a train and made a campaign with Zlatan Ibrahimovic without knowing who he was. I also worked as a waiter at Buckingham Palace. I tried very hard to get a selfie with the Queen and was close to being kicked out of the UK indefinitely. The hardest brief of my career was promoting pizza with cheddar instead of mozzarella. Absolute nonsense!
During lockdown, I produced a film on the side with fellow creatives to raise awareness about human trafficking that ended up on Sky News. Finally, I’m one of those weirdos who loves making ads. From humongous brand platforms thinking to silly social posts and everything in between. Currently living with my girlfriend, she’s very proud of her ad-blocking app.
