Sumário

Award-winning agency marketer with 15+ years agency experience across 50+ brands. Client lead for global and local accounts including Starbucks (current) Suzuki (current), Haven (current), MINI, Philips and Unilever. Agency CMO and pitch addict. Named Iris “Star Player” (Campaign ‘18), winner of WACL Future Leader Award and shortlisted for IPA Women of Tomorrow.

Happiest (work) in the middle of the insight, strategy, creative and commercial circle. Positive about being a generalist.

Happiest (life) with my boys. Or running. Or in the waves. Ideally all at once.

Restless and full of frustrated ambition, driven by a need to make an impact. Kept awake by ideas, plans, the climate crisis and endless lists.
