- When did you decide you wanted to be in this business? Why?
The day I chose to devote the rest of my career to this industry was when I saw a start-up whose strategy and brand we'd been working on come to life and become one of the leading players in the market. It just felt so rewarding!
- Which projects have been the most meaningful to you and why?
Any project where the client wants to co-create the answer and is happy to roll up their sleeves and get stuck in with us. It makes it so much more fun and more impactful.
- For you, what makes Lippincott a special place to work?
Lippincott is an incredibly smart yet humble and human business that has a track record of truly great ideas that have impact in market. Brilliant, fresh thinking that makes a difference.
- Do you have a mantra or a favorite quote?
Work smart, not hard. And 80/20 means 20% of the work to deliver 80% of the impact, not the other way around.
- What’s your favorite thing about the place you call home?
My bike — it sits in a place of pride in a cupboard at the centre of the house.
- What’s your happy place?
Blue sky, fresh powder, and I’m jumping off the lip of a cornice about to rip a beautiful line down the mountain... always brings a smile to my face. If only reality were as smooth.
