Personal Introduction

Hi there, I am a marketing professional with um...  a few too many years experience!!  I've worked for IBM for many years but also have plenty of experience working with charities in both a pro-bono and voluntary capacity.  My main interests are interntational development, womens empowerment and sustainability so I'd be particularly keen to work on a project in one of those areas. What skills can I bring?  Well, bundles of enthusiasm...  strategy & planning, social media, branding, events management and I'll put my hand to pretty much anything.  I also lead IBM's Marketing Matters pro-bono consultancy, you can check out what we do at ibm.com/uk/marketingmatters Look forward to hearing from you
