I wish to find new words and new skills to help further foster my experience and build a bright future.

“Whilst working within Liberty Global I have had the golden opportunity to establish and build a highly successful internal creative agency within a Global organization catapulting the reputation of my team within the International TV landscape; and I will soon embark on a journey to further champion creativity within the organization by expanding my remit across the wider group. To attend the Berlin School EMBA will assist me in building stronger and more challenging thought processes, and nurture the desire I have to apply leadership through creativity in a highly technical and complex digital world.”
