CREATIVITY IS FUNDAMENTALEven in sectors and roles perceived as non-creative and in people who believe they are not. I thrive on encouraging people to do things they didn’t think they could do, and showing them that they can.MARKETING & RELATED SKILLSWorking in Marketing and Communications for over 15 years, experience has taught me that when providing a service, organisation is key (I am a dedicated list-maker), along with exemplary prioritisation and time-management skills. I recently discovered that practising mindfulness is a great tool for perspective and in overcoming challenges which seem insurmountable. I thrive when motivated, delivering high quality projects and meeting seemingly impossible deadlines when necessary.Some recent management achievements at vHH Architects- Install of major central image management system, saving significant money, time & resource- Implementation of office-wide ACT CMS and progressing business development- Development & upkeep of new practice website- Ongoing press features & award wins for the practice to raise profile and statusWRITINGA favourite part of my job is producing engaging copy from disparate facts and sources. I have written countless winning award submissions, bid proposals and press releases for vHH and successful funding bids for Dartford arts projects.DARTFORD ARTS NETWORKIn 2012 I co-founded DAN and have been voted in an officer role since 2014. As part of this I have co-managed various art projects, including at Lowfield Street (Dartford’s first Public Art display) working with local businesses and Dartford Council. I have optimistic but realistic vision and always deliver what I promise.'ME' TIMEWhen I get some spare time, I take photographs and make art. I’ve had my art work shown in various exhibitions and held a solo exhibition of photographic works in 2016. at the Sir Peter Blake Gallery in Dartford. My photos have been published in my local newspapers, The Stage and The Voice Magazine.
