A results-driven Account and Production Director with over 15 years of experience bridging the gap between internal creative teams and global clients.

I specialise in scaling accounts and maintaining an exceptional on-time, on-budget delivery rate across the Medical, Construction, Technology, and SaaS sectors. I act as the single point of contact for clients, understanding their world and guiding them through the creative process with transparency.

I have a proven track record of managing high-volume creative work streams across video, design, animation, and events. I thrive in fast-paced agency environments where I can juggle multiple clients and conflicting deadlines without compromising quality.
