Brook 2009 - 2011 Web, Campaigns & Fundraising Assistant
Brook are a large sexual health charity. I joined as a temp but soon helped them realise the impact of social on their fundraising and awareness campaigns, creating a permanent role for myself. From the beginning there were constraints on the type of activity and the target audience, it was clear this needed to be an activity around branding and public awareness and the target should not be anyone who uses Brook’s services. We went onto create a young people focused micro brand, run by young volunteers encouraging everyone to get involved with a clear CTA – be Sex:Positive. This message was targeted at a younger potential service user audience. I helped source, manage and deliver the design of the brand, site and social channels including: a campaign hub site, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and a Tumblr account.

Freelance 2012 - 2013 Digital Consultant
Surface boutique Surface Arts is an artists collective founded by Katie Hawker. As an extension to this, and inspired by the artists she met in Chiang Mai, she wanted to allow a number of her artists to earn a living from the designs, Surface Boutique was born. All designs are hand made in Chiang Mai, but are aimed at a UK market. I consulted to the founder, using my digital expertise and knowledge helping her select a web designer, manage the build and inject best practice in terms of layout and social integration.
