My first job was the whole marketing function. Social posts, brochures, posters, web copy, SEO blogs, landing pages. If it had words or pixels, it went through me.

How I lead

Good work isn’t luck. It’s a habit the whole team keeps.

  1. 01

    The process

    brief → concept → review → ship

    Nothing ships until it answers three questions. Who is this for? What should they do next? Why would they believe us?

  2. 02

    Mentoring

    I’ve grown a team of 3 and teams of 10–12. My favourite part of the job is watching someone going above and beyond on the brief.

  3. 03

    AI in the loop

    AI speeds up research, variations and first drafts. People own the idea, the judgement and the final word.

the end (for now)

Let’s make something move.
