Creative Projects Manager at Calm Asylum
Cleveland, United Kingdom
12 years ago I graduated with a degree in Visual Communications and set out to conquer the world. After travelling through the USA I landed in London and took a sales job to put baked-beans on the table and pay the rent. For the next few years I grew my expertise in training, motivating and management of sales teams.
Returning to New Zealand (I'm Kiwi) to have my twin girls 9 years ago, I realised I needed to bring my career back to marketing. Returning to the UK I worked in radio and press before stepping into an agency environment.
I love good design and especially love great concepts for campaigns. Having first-hand knowledge of media means that I can effectively plan and deliver targeted campaigns for my clients. Constant learning about new communication channels and emerging media means I'm able to offer a holistic marketing mix that will really achieve the results my clients expect.
I've worked on some exciting integrated regional tourism campaigns underpinned by web and e-marketing, as well as healthcare (NHS Trust and PCT IDs and campaigns, education and the enterprise agenda.
