CONTENT LEADERSHIP | digital strategy | BRAND & COMMUNITY
memorable STORYTELLING with Measurable impact
I’m a content and creative strategy leader who combines editorial storytelling with data-driven digital expertise to enable brands to achieve their goals.
Whether you need a multi-channel content strategy, want to build a content engine to power growth, or need an experienced operator to lead campaigns, I bring the know-how forged from 20+ years on the frontlines of media and brand content.
I’ve worked with brands including Waitrose, British Airways, Vivobarefoot, Dentsu Creative, Live Nation, Time Out London, Diageo and GoPro.
I’m also a seasoned writer and editor, with bylines across club culture, food and travel. My debut book, ‘How You Make Me Feel: The Life and Legacy of Marcus Intalex’, was published by Velocity Press and described as ‘a classic’ by Goldie.
