About

! have more than 30 years of advertising and marketing experience initially in account management, communication strategy and agency management before finally having a new lease of life as a creative. I have been leading a creative team for the last 5 years at a multinational agency where we specialise in social and digital marketing. I plan to retire working full time next year but want to continue contributing and earning for a while more.

What I'm looking for

I'm constantly curious and excited about the changing nature of communication - I've seen the evolution over time so I hold nothing as sacred in our search for effective solutions. I'm looking for projects that allow this curiousity the space to come to life.
