I've been working in the world of professional services for over 10 years. My first role was at specialist PR agency Kysen PR where I cut my teeth on all things PR and comms related and worked with a range of fantastic and varied clients.

These included large City law firms, barristers chambers, top 30 accountancy firms and regional law firms. I then moved on to a broader marketing role at leading independent law firm Farrer & Co where I was responsible for the creation, execution and evaluation of all marketing and communications activities for several key sector groups and the firm as a whole. There was never a dull day at Farrers and some highlights included organising a networking and art tour event at the National Gallery for over 300 guests, travelling to Geneva to set up the firm's first International Private Wealth summit and producing a series of "Annual Reviews" for clients and contacts.
