Bonjour,
I’m Steph, an award-winning Creative Director with a strong background in Art Direction and over 13 years of experience in advertising. I studied Art in Paris, before moving to London to join the Watford creative ad course. This helped me win Cream's Best Worldwide Ad Graduate Team in 2011, and get a job at Creature London which at the time was a start-up of 8. My first Creative Director role was at a content agency where we helped brands connect with audiences on a deeper level, by harnessing the power of human stories & storytelling.
Now I’m freelancing, with AnalogFolk, Exposure, Born Social, Havas Red, and Revolt being some of the fabulous agencies I’ve had the pleasure to collaborate with these past three years. And recently I’ve focused on purpose-driven projects; from environmental, sustainability, Diversity, Equity & Inclusion, health access, mental health, self-care, and education to big behaviour change. Added to that, I have the MA Advertising students at ECV Paris keeping me on my toes during the creative workshops I run.
When I’m not bingeing on series or devouring graphic novels, I illustrate and have been fortunate to publish a number of picture books in NYC and the UK. My current art therapy is illustrating comics and writing a Graphic Novel.
