About

I have a passion and energy for my industry, and I strive to be different and develop the most unique and creative concepts to ensure the event is always the envy of others. I also have a proven track record of managing successful freelance projects, such as Ecologi's crowdfund that surpassed its target by 200% and raised over £4 million, and It's Time, a global virtual festival of climate action that involved the broadcast of 65 hours of climate talks and activities. I have strong skills in social networking, marketing communications, and attention to detail, and I am committed to providing a personal service, building long-term relationships, and exceeding expectations on every event.
