I’m currently the Head of Audiences at Discover Children’s Story Centre – a hands-on, family museum of stories and play based in Stratford, East London. I’ve worked in charity and arts marketing for most of my career, including my last job at the National Centre for Circus Arts – where the flying trapeze swung past my window, and I completely failed to ever learn how to juggle.

I’ve been a member of the AMA for years and have taken part in some of the first digital marketing training, the Audience Diversity Academy and more recently the Senior Marketing Retreat and the AI Essentials course.

Working in senior management can need quite different skillsets from other marketing roles – and I’m excited to work with the AMA and my wonderful co-connector to provide a space to talk and learn about the challenges we face, and the skills we need to meet them.

Outside of my paid work I write novels and short stories and hang out with my 9 year old.
