I've been meddling with marketing for over 10 years and always had an interest in digital insights.  I started out as a journalist once-upon-a-time, writing for Agricultural magazines about pig feed... it's amazing where your career takes you.  I then had the chance to move into the built environment and haven't looked back - I love telling stories for brands that are making a real difference to our quality of life, and I (we) have a lot of fun doing that.  The digital side of things is where we as an agency excel - I've always enjoyed delivering results that make a positive dent on clients balance books, crafting campaigns that identify new areas of commercial growth and such.  Looking forward to connecting with some new (and a few old) faces! 

Experienced Marketing Coordinator with a demonstrated history of working in the building materials industry. Skilled in Advertising, Communication, Adobe Indesign CC, Marketing Event Planning, and Business Development. Strong marketing professional with a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) focused in Business/Commerce, General from Edinburgh Napier University.

With over 15 years’ experience of strategic marketing in the built environment, I have previously worked at some well-known names within the industry. I’ve had an exciting career so far, working on research projects to unlock growth for companies, implementing strategies for international markets throughout Europe as well as developing and launching products through multi-channel campaigns.  Sustainability is a big passion of mine – the ever increasing threat of the climate emergency means that sustainable thinking needs to be at the heart of all strategies. I have experience in reviewing a company’s carbon impact by looking at scopes 1 -3. With this data, I was able to contribute to creating roadmaps and translate them into successful commercial strategy. I’m thrilled to have founded Urban Fox Marketing, which is all my passion and knowledge (and curiosity) poured into a marketing consultancy, tailored to each client.
