Hello. I’m a senior freelance integrated copywriter. Before going freelance I spent four years plying my trade at OgilvyOne London. Previously, I’ve plied it at TBWA/London, Partners Andrews Aldridge, Harrison Troughton Wunderman, Rapier, Wunderman and Cogent Elliott. Scroll down and take a look at my work. Then see if you can pick the piece that picked up a Cannes Lions Direct Grand Prix. Discover the rare piece of John Lennon memorabilia I found in Rolls-Royce’s archives. Or see why sometimes 784 words are all you need to get your point across on a 48-sheet poster. Thanks for looking. If you’d like me to ply my trade for you, give me a call on 07980 446 308.

#MarryMeMugabe

Robert Mugabe is not only against same-sex marriage, he’s against same-sex relationships.
He says that his country would never legalise homosexuality.

So we’d like to propose he changes his mind.

Bizarrely, he proposed to Barak Obama in the same week Stonewall gave the agency a brief to highlight the fact that in some countries homosexuality is still illegal.

So we’d like to get people to show their support for LGBT by getting down on one knee and proposing to Mugabe using the hashtag #MarryMeMugabe

We’d get famous LGBT and straight people to tweet marriage proposals, not just to Robert, but the other leaders of the 76 countries that share his views.
