Multi passionate, I have built a portfolio career across a range of advertising disciplines and social impact initiatives. I have successfully navigated a career to senior management level, working with agencies and clients to create and sell advertising campaigns and partnerships. My desire to lead a more purpose driven life has encouraged me to be the change I want to see. Launching, The Uncommon Collective a social enterprise to support young people in media. Co-founding Join Our Table a space for Black women to be more visible in the industry and most recently CEO and Founder of Fully Human Ltd, a personal development platform for women and underrepresented group. Passionate about seeing a more diverse and inclusive landscape I have used my transferable skills such as business development, digital marketing and project management to deliver initiatives Currently client director at Global Media I continue to look at how I can build more purpose led commercial opportunities for clients. Taking a more holistic approach to their media planning I collaborate with various stakeholders both in and outside the business to deliver initiatives and campaigns that don’t just generate revenue but have a real social impact. My career has spanned all the traditional disciplines such as outdoor, press, cinema and radio as well as working in the digital and influencers space. More recently I have trained as an L&D facilitator and work into the D&I commercial committee. My career has moved me from start-ups to large corporations and down again. But what matters is not that title but that I am in an environment that is always supported.
