About Me
(and the Zebra)
In Native American shamanism the zebra symbolises balance, agility, clarity without filters, and sureness of path.
So, let’s start with the zebra on the page! You might be wondering what the zebra has to do with me.
It’s quite simple, really – the zebra resonates with me. Let's call her a "she," though it's hard to tell.
This zebra represents the value of being different, of rebelling against conformity. She defies convention and expectation, showing that being bold and unique, standing out from the rest of the herd is pretty damn remarkable. She embodies the power and strength of individuality, reminding us to stay true to ourselves, to stand firm and proud in our originality – a path that requires both bravery and guts. She also encourages us to embrace playfulness and experimentation, to lead with imagination, push boundaries, and embrace our inner wild.
This zebra reminds me of what it means to be creative.
About Me
I started my career as a theatre actor, living and working in the UK and North America, until eventually I moved to London where I started a new chapter, working in creative agencies. Initially, for a short period of time, I worked in global advertising and then in experiential marketing and live events becoming a creative content and show producer - something I still do to this day.
By this point, I have spent over twenty years working in the creative industries, surrounded by creativity. I’ve learnt a lot about the subject during that time, not only the importance of creativity within business but about personal creativity and the challenges some people face when it comes to owning, accessing and using their own. This experience has led me, more recently to develop my own methodology helping individuals unlock their creative potential. In turn, resulting in my work as a creative facilitator and establishing Wildly Creative, a hub for creative development, providing training, products and services that aid and promote creative growth, enabling and empowering creativity to thrive, in everyone.
In addition to supporting other peoples creativity, I am dedicated to continually using and developing my own, through my book-writing and storytelling, through the creative services I offer and through the life I am constantly creating for myself, more of which you can find out below.
