I have been in the advertising and communications industry for 14 years, starting off as an account executive for Carter and a Couple.
I worked in the UK for over two years on a contract basis for various agencies including Bartle, Bogle and Hegarty, Young & Rubicam, Grey's Integrated.
I made the move from advertising to PR in the UK when i worked for Olympus Cameras and launched their digital range as well as worked very closely with renowned photographer David Bailey on various projects.
Once back in South Africa I worked for large PR agencies in Cape Town such as Total Media and Magna Carta Cape Town before I headed off to start my own small PR practice.
My husband and I then ventured out into the country where we had a organic vegetable and pig farm for 4 years and this gave me enough time to relax and get ready for my next burst in communications.
I am now the account director for Leap Communications where we specialise in wellness and lifestyle clients.
