About me

I am a creative and award-winning marketer with experience across a variety of fast-paced industries and a portfolio of award-winning and bestselling marketing campaigns.

I’m skilled across marketing disciplines, from directing the creative vision of a campaign to booking out-of-home across TV and National Rail. My passion lies in digital marketing and I use a range of audience intelligence tools to justify decision-making and steer audience targeting for optimal results. I have demonstrable experience across the marketing mix, developing end-to-end campaigns that deliver results.

After starting my publishing career in reference marketing, I’ve since gained considerable experience across a variety of genres including crime, thriller, literary fiction, fantasy and romantasy, contemporary fiction, cookbooks, non-fiction, poetry, children’s books and YA.

To date, I’ve won nine Book Marketing Society Awards – five as a marketing consultant – for work on Butter (4th Estate), Collins English Dictionary (Collins), Let The Light Pour In (Canongate), Spaceboy (HarperCollins Children’s Books), James Acaster’s Guide to Quitting Social Media (Headline), and more! I’ve also played a significant role working collaboratively with marketers on some of the biggest books of the last five years.

I am passionate about mentoring and supporting the next generation of marketers. I am currently an Associate Lecturer for the Publishing MA at Oxford Brookes, as well as delivering guest lectures to Publishing students at several universities. I also volunteer my time mentoring publishing hopefuls and working-class graduates, both independently and through the SYP London and North schemes.

Copywriting

For as long as I can remember, I’ve always loved to write. From letters and short stories to an extremely detailed reference title (complete with terrible illustrations) on my favourite zoo animals that I gifted to a friend. I went from hobby writer, to writer and editor of my student newspaper, to professional copywriter who still gets excited to see their work published!

One thing that has remained important to me throughout my career is to create great content that people genuinely want to read. I’ve written for many B2B and B2C brands across a variety of topics and I understand how to adapt tone to suit the intended audience, no matter the subject matter.

You can find here a full portfolio of all my live work. I have experience across a wide range of companies, writing everything from thought leadership blogs and snappy campaign round-ups to detailed CSR reports and SEO-focused web articles.
