Experience

  • Director
    Europe
    Mar 2008 - Aug 2009
    Geekery industries

    After leaving Diesel I decided to set up on my own, which worked out great for a few months. I managed to pick up a few decent clients in Italy, the US, UK and Holland doing some print, web and motion graphics projects.

    Then the economy collapsed and all that went out the window.

    55DSL

    What a job! I was officially in charge of developing the digital marketing strategy for the whole of 55DSL across 13 countries including the US, UK and Japan as well as developing the overall marketing strategy with the rest of the team.

    55DSL is a small hands on company so on top of all that, I also handled the design and development of all the online marketing tools and special projects. I also did quite a bit of copywriting.

    Best job ever. i should never have left.
