ABOUT ME
Hey, I’m Joe. Born in the English countryside, I traveled the world and ended up in California.
Somewhere along the way I fell in love with design and solving consumer needs. For me, design is a way of thinking
For the past thirteen years I’ve had the pleasure of working with some of the world’s most well-known, beloved brands;
from Levi’s to Ben + Jerrys to Caterpillar to IBM to Visa to Team GB and the Olympic Games.
But my biggest passion? Exploring the world and the beauty that lies within, camera in hand, and never far from nature.
MARKETING + BRAND STRATEGIST
From brand strategy to marketing and communication campaigns, I pride myself on balancing vision and collaboration, inspiring teams, and maximizing opportunities to help brands tell great stories, grow market share and build customer loyalty.
EXPERIENCE DESIGNER
Design starts with the customer. Through the Human-centered design process, I have created award-winning experiences from digital platforms to mobile apps to retail spaces to experiential events and product launches.
AWARD WINNING PHOTOGRAPHER
Internationally published and award-winning photographer having worked for clients such as Diageo, Peugeot, Team GB, and as a freelance sports photographer for the Press Association. My work has covered the Olympic Games to campaign shoots to travel and wildlife photography around the world.
WORLD TRAVELER
I have been fortunate to have traveled all corners of the globe and been humbled by the generosity the people of the world have shown me on my travels. I believe the broader our understanding of human existence, the better design we will have for the world around us.
WHO I'VE WORKED WITH
