Her career has spanned numerous agencies, specialties and countries, including Singapore, Hong Kong, Sydney, the UK and US, working with both global and local brands, on projects that span both size and complexity. Despite so many years away from Britain she’s still considers herself ‘a northern lass’ at heart.
