I’m a freelance Marketing Manager with 10 years experience in theatre, film and events. I work with companies and artists to help deliver and manage marketing campaigns for projects across the UK.
I work with clients to manage the full marketing mix of their projects from strategic campaign management, developing new/current audiences, liaising with venues, management of social media channels, content creation for both digital and physical media, budgeting marketing spend and grass roots marketing outreach.
I have a background in the creative arts and graduated with an MA in Film, Television and Screen Media from Birkbeck, University of London, this led me to work as a Distribution Manager handling press/marketing for one of the UK’s most recognised LGBT film distributors, Peccadillo Pictures. Projects I have worked on have been seen at various festivals across the UK and Internationally including the Berlin International Film Festival, BFI London Film Festival, BFI Flare: London LGBTQIA+ Film Festival, Fringe! Queer Film & Arts Fest, Edinburgh Festival Fringe and the Edinburgh Film Festival.
I have a strong understanding of the Scottish theatre landscape and the range of different audiences and how to engage them effectively. I also have experience with Creative Scotland’s touring fund and have successfully toured multiple theatre shows across the country.
I am based in Edinburgh but work across the UK.
