Executive Producer
Vidcon

After working in Music Law for 5 years I made the move to Digital Media in 2010 and was very lucky to be a part of the rise of Multi Channel Networks. As part of a fast moving, entrepreneurial company, ChanelFlip, we helped shape the face of creator marketing in the UK and worked hard to prove what a valuable market it could be.

I worked closely with online creators and with the support of ChannelFlip set up FlipSide Talent Agency, both companies were bought by Endemol Shine in 2015.

After that I was asked to set up and run the UK branch of Studio 71 and once it was established moved on to focus on another passion of mine - live events.

My latest project has been with VidCon and managing launch in the middle east, VidCon Abu Dhabi. Learning how to work in a new market and navigating ever changing covid restrictions were both challenging but extremely rewarding.
