What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a Senior Designer or Creative Director role balancing high-level strategy with hands-on execution. I thrive on driving brand innovation, shaping customer experiences, and leading creative teams. Passionate about fostering collaborative environments, I aim to nurture the next era of design talent while delivering work that drives real impact.

With 15 years of experience shaping visual languages for brands like Aldi, Capgemini, Apple, and SCC, I combine design-led strategy, CX transformation, and hands-on creative execution to drive measurable commercial growth.

Agency Leadership & Business Growth | CREATVHUB, WHTE & AR Design
As Creative Director and agency partner, I lead end-to-end strategy, brand architecture, and multi-channel campaigns for startups, SMEs, and FMCG brands. Working with WHTE, I scaled a flagship multi-business portfolio from £700k to £2.03M in cumulative revenue over two years by aligning creative execution directly with commercial goals. At CREATVHUB and AR Design, I merge illustration, strategic planning, and design thinking to ensure brands perform as exceptionally as they look.

Global Service Design & CX | Aldi
I led human centered service design and UI/UX architecture across the UK, US, Australia, and Germany. Architecting a unified global e-commerce template for Aldi Süd, I aligned cross-border requirements into a scalable digital ecosystem. By mapping end-to-end customer journeys and bridging front-stage UI with back-stage logistics, I optimised high-volume touch-points and elevated global brand trust.

Strategic Design & Facilitation | Capgemini (HMRC)
Spearheading design-led problem solving for HMRC, I translated complex enterprise challenges into actionable visual strategies. By facilitating multi-stage workshops, I converted intricate operational pain points into engaging brand narratives and user experiences, enabling cross-functional stakeholders to align on solutions and execute large-scale transformation.

Brand Governance & B2B Strategy | SCC
Rising from Junior to Senior Designer over four years at a high-growth B2B tech leader, I safeguarded brand identity across print, digital, and web ecosystems. I established global brand guidelines, mentored junior talent, and partnered with marketing and bid teams using tools like Salesforce to deliver high-stakes collateral aligned with revenue targets.

Front-Line Brand Custodianship | Apple Serving as an Apple Genius for three years, I translated core brand philosophy into high-impact, face-to-face customer interactions. Operating in a high-volume environment, I specialised in conflict resolution, leveraging empathy and emotional maturity to turn critical customer pain points into long-term brand advocacy and product retention.
