ABOUT ME
A strategic marketing and communications professional with a proven track record of delivering corporate and consumer campaigns for some of the world’s best known sport and entertainment properties, personalities and events.
I’ve been fortunate to build a broad-base of experience working for, and on behalf of, high-profile sports and entertainment brands, rights owners, broadcasters and media companies - both agency and client side.
I've worked for businesses of all sizes and scales - from major multinationals, to the UK's biggest media companies and specialist boutique agencies - providing me with the skills to deal with complex stakeholder environments.
My experience of the sports broadcasting industry, with Sky, BT Sport and Eurosport, has enabled me to create campaigns around major global sporting events and attain high-level experience in dealing with reputation and issues management scenarios, both from a planning and on-the-ground standpoint.
I pride myself on the ability to quickly build effective working relationships with colleagues, clients and stakeholders. I'm passionate about innovating the way communications teams function and believe in a holistic approach that focuses on transparency and creativity to deliver the most impactful and integrated strategies and campaigns.

From a personal perspective, I currently reside in Paris with my wife but I'm actively mobile for all projects. Sport and media isn't just my job, its my passion. I play, read about and watch many sports - football, cricket, rugby, golf and tennis to name a few. I also love reading and learning about the sport and media industries - from data to D2C, esports to fan engagement and social media strategy to streaming services - I like to ensure I stay on top of the latest developments in these fast-moving sectors.
