No fluff. Just brand.
I’ve spent the last fifteen years bringing brands to life.

Making brands mean something
I'm a Creative Director and brand designer based in London. Currently Head of Brand Design and Creative at Zopa Bank and before that, Creative Director at Wolff Olins, working with some of the world's most significant organisations. Alongside all of it, a founding role at JAJA Tequila since day one. The details are below.
Currently
Leading Brand Design & Creative at Zopa Bank, shaping how the brand shows up across multiple channels as we grow.
2020-2026
I was Creative Director at Wolff Olins, helping global organizations define their brand by bringing it to life through strategic led design and succinct storytelling. I’ve worked with leaders across biopharma, travel, technology, finance and retail, on brands such as Abrdn, AXA, BBC, Google, GSK, Huawei, and Uber. Learn more about Wolff Olins here.
2013-2019
At Gin Lane, I helped shape some of the most culturally resonant DTC brands of the 2010s. I led design across visual identity, and digital experiences—working at the intersection of brand storytelling and user experience to launch products people actually wanted to live with. From early brand worlds to flow-driven ecommerce, I was part of building the blueprint for what modern brand design looks like today.

Ongoing
Since its 2018 launch, I've been part of the founding team of JAJA Tequila. I continue to act as a brand consultant for the business - involved in all aspects of product and brand. Learn more about JAJA here.
