My Principles:
To be integral, passionate, determined and to enjoy life.
My Background:
I worked in the music industry from a young age for companies such as Warner Music and Pinnacle Entertainment, subsequently setting up my own record label and production house which I ran for six years. From there, I went on to set up a small mobile content & marketing agency, Trusted Media, in 2003; signing over 100 record labels to create mobile content for operators such as O2, Vodafone and Orange. I have been in mobile ever since, working at Enpocket and then Nokia Interactive on large accounts such as Trinity Mirror before moving on to head up YOC’s UK division. I am extremely passionate about the mobile medium.
