As a Music Supervisor with over 5 years’ experience, I’ve built trusted relationships with clients across advertising, film, and TV, and developed close ties with major labels, publishers, and indie tastemakers in the music world. I’ve pitched and won briefs for major brands such as IKEA, KFC, CO-OP, John Lewis, TK MAXX, and more. Since landing in Sydney in July, I’ve been consulting for Score Addiction, boosting their sync presence across film, TV, and advertising in the UK, US, and ANZ. I’m also leading advertising client relations at 101 Music, growing partnerships and opportunities across Australasia. I have a passion for helping emerging or lesser-known artists get their music featured in ads, films, and TV shows. For instance, in the summer of 2024, I advocated for UK artist Native James to be featured in a CO-OP campaign, as his sound was the perfect fit for the brief. That win not only helped fund his music career, but he was also recently nominated for a MOBO award. Since moving to Sydney, I’ve continued to nurture relationships, drive creative direction, and champion artists across the advertising and entertainment landscape. Moments like those are what truly drive me.
