Born and raised in Manchester, it’s a city I’ve always called home. I have a degree in Accounting but was quickly drawn to the world of Marketing due to the endless creative possibilities and ways to influence customer behaviour. With over 7 years of experience across ecommerce, home improvement, healthcare, and now property, I’ve developed a strategic and data-driven approach that’s always fuelled by a creative edge. I’m passionate about building strong brands, crafting effective marketing strategies, and leading campaigns that truly connect with our customers. Paid advertising, design, and digital engagement are where I thrive and I enjoy building relationships just as much as I enjoy delivering results. I am committed to bringing a fresh, modern approach to estate agency marketing, making sure we’re not just keeping up with the industry, but staying ahead of it. Outside of work, you’ll probably find me listening to electronic music, clocking up miles on a long run, spending time with family, or shouting at the TV during a football match or Formula 1 race.
