Hi,
I am not a fan of lists.
They are dull.
And rarely rewarding.
But I am a writer.
And a problem solver.
So here is a list.
I said writer...
I'm also an art director.
...And a creative director.
I could also add, mildly celebrated author & illustrator.
But chiefly I love ideas.
Ideally, the problem-solving kind.
Over the years I have been lucky enough to bring a few into the world.
Like creating one of the world's most shared memes.
A response to the London riots, that spawned a book, worldwide news coverage, and was shared 6 million times. In a week.
Or creating an adventure book series.
To inspire kids away from their screens.
Now translated in over 22 languages.
Film rights...pending.
There's the traditional stuff, too.
Award-winning TV & print campaigns.
And one's I can't even mention.
World-first music videos? Check.
That were actually ads. Check.
There have been launches.
Like giffgaff.
Making it one of the
fastest growing mobile networks in history.
We even freed 10,000 chickens.
A battery hen for every mobile unlocked.
Slightly weird, but it worked.
And start ups.
Like the feel good bakery.
Buy a sandwich. Feed a child in need.
78,502 meals, so far.
Even a few world records.
Like the world's largest fruit-powered battery for Innocent drinks.
And the world's coldest portrait.
With Wim Hof.
Yes, that's me drawing.
🥶
And finally, I hope, one more.
A list.
That you have read to the end.
Without too much pain.
Thank you for reading.
Ideas.
And lists.
Readily available.
