Me at work, and with one of my paintings in the desert.
I started my career at BBH where they hired 'good and nice people'. Twenty years later, I believe I'm still both of those things. I work hard, always try and make my work stem from a single-minded concept and have a hands-on approach. I'm happy to lead a small creative team but also jump in and help them with designing when they need some extra support.
I spent my first six years creating integrated campaigns for Audi, Barclays, AEG, Zanussi and KFC at BBH. Then I freelanced at places like Havas, Ogilvy and Publicis. In-house at Avon and Tesco, and before long I was back at BBH working on the Tesco account, British Airways and I was also part of the new Health team working on AbbVie and other Healthcare accounts. Since then I’ve been freelancing at some big and small agencies with two years permalance at McCann, mostly on the Vauxhall, VWFS, Sunseeker, Scania and Bentley accounts. In 2020 I became a digital nomad and continued to freelance remotely for McCann. I spent a few months as a Creative Lead at Oliver on the Reckitt social team whilst living in Thailand. I teamed up with a writer at AML to work on T. Rowe Price, Vanguard and other finance accounts whilst based in Norway. I designed fresh branding for Signal whilst living in South Africa. And then I teamed back up with ex-BBHer, Miriam Thomas to work at Mark Making on The Prince's Trust. On my return to the UK, I joined Prescript Communications with Miriam where we oversaw the creative, design and creative copy output for all Healthcare clients including Novartis, Incyte and Bavarian Nordic.
I'm currently working as a consultant Creative Director at Prescript Communications and am open to new freelance opportunities as a solo Senior Art Director, or creative team with Miriam. Take a look at our joint creative portfolio:
I also run a small business called NOAMA where I sell my minimalist graphic paintings.
