Обо мне

It’s increasingly difficult to deliver headlines today. To cut through and engage with your audience you have to provoke interest in a creative and exciting way. A successful PR & Marketing Director with 15 years of practical communications and strategic experience within the global creative industries, I founded my own consultancy - Hooton - to provide fame planning and creative PR to give companies and individuals the engagement and recognition they deserve. At Hooton we work globally with a range of exciting companies and talented individuals, including 72andSunny Amsterdam, UNIT9, London Strategy Unit, BETC Paris & London, Converse, new hotel brand Zoku and photographer Sophie Ebrard. I have provided strategic PR counsel for clients such as Coca-Cola, Ubisoft, Heineken, Booking.com, Powerade, Nike, EA Games, Converse, evian, Air France, Peugeot, Canal+, on a global, regional and local level. Securing coverage in the New York Times, The Guardian, Dazed, Vice, Mashable, Huffington Post, Metro UK, Fast Company, The Telegraph, Le Figaro, Digital Spy, Monocle, Creative Review, Le Monde among others.
