Hello, I’m Ollie.
I’ve been a Creative of the Copywriter variety for over 10 years.
In that time I’ve managed and mentored young Creatives.
I spoke about sexual harassment in the ad industry on a panel at Cannes.
And, I even became a chartered manager with an MSc in Management and Leadership.
If you share my love of simple ideas that stretch in surprising ways. And, campaigns that create real impact, whether that’s commercial or societal, let’s chat.
