About
On the rain soaked schoolyards of my youth, I developed a passion for storytelling, using it as a tool to distract playground bullies, and escape punishment for daydream induced late homework. I’ve been fascinated with the process, and the power, ever since.
With over 18 years experience of visual and business storytelling, through marketing, film making, photography, and writing, I show brands how to tell authentic stories with purpose.
When not delivering workshops, I can be found dissecting, and giving controversial options on, film (Dune is better than Star Wars), writing poetry & screenplays, and reading. Get to know me more
Workshops
I curate group & one on one workshops for a select number of brands, and leaders, who know their story matters, but need to tell it better. No fluff, no filler. Just the essentials: crafting authentic narratives that demand attention, motivate, and persuade.
Rooted in the art and science of storytelling, these sessions draw from literature, film, music, photography, poetry, and psychology—breaking down what makes a story work and how to use it when it matters most.
Who are they for? For brands, creatives, sales & marketing teams, and leaders who need their stories to captivate, influence, and inspire. Due to demand, I only take on a limited number of clients at a time, so let’s talk about how we can work together
