For more than 12 years, Russ has worked with me on projects big and small, for Fortune 50 companies and small entrepreneurs. He is one of those rare creatives: an exceptional conceptual designer who also writes brilliantly. Working with Russ is stress-free and will be one of the best decisions you ever make.
To say Russ has huge design talent is only part of the story. His incredible creative skills are complemented by his drive to really get under the skin of a product or service, and to understand the target, their needs and the required solutions. He is a thought partner, a designer, a wordsmith and a real joy to work with.
Expect a lot from Russ. He will deliver, whether you need an award-winning corporate campaign, branding or a website. Russ is one of the few people I have come across who combines creativity with common sense, flair with attention to detail. He has helped us to win awards and win clients, and then to keep them.

A SELECTION OF MY FAVOURITE TRAVEL PICS
I've been an avid traveller ever since I was old enough to sell my childhood desk, a portable TV set I had won in an art competition when I was fifteen, and some other possessions I felt I could happily part with without facing the wrath of my mom. One of my...
