About Matt

I lead end-to-end production for digital and experiential programmes including scoping, budgeting and steering cross-functional teams to final delivery.

Comfortable translating strategy into detailed schedules, I align creatives, developers, content creators and stakeholders so that emerging tech becomes dependable revenue for lifestyle, tech and entertainment brands worldwide.
