Hello, there.
I am a highly experienced design leader who believes in the transformative power of design and storytelling for business.
For over twenty-five years, I have designed for global brands including Sony, Nokia, Ford, British Airways, Nike, and Alfred Dunhill, working both in-house and for agencies in London, Los Angeles, Munich and Dublin. Most recently, I was Head of Design for International Beverages at PepsiCo where I established and led an award winning global team in the creation of multi-channel consumer experiences that drove culture and delivered business impact for billion-dollar brands such as Pepsi, 7UP, Gatorade, and Rockstar.
Throughout my career, I have made a specialism out of being a generalist. My broad body of work, rooted in curiosity, craft and culture, manifests in a multidisciplinary approach encompassing strategy, product, branding, digital, packaging and experience design.
I thrive on bringing simplicity to complex problems, am obsessed by the role of narrative in connecting us to brands, and believe deeply that creativity can be a cure-all for any business malaise.
