About me

In an ever-changing media landscape, it's never been harder for creative companies to differentiate themselves. It's no longer enough to just shout louder, it's all about what you're saying and how you say it that gets you heard. It's about developing and expressing your unique personality as a business; one that inspires, engages and persuades. And that's where Menagerie PR can help you.
Nobody wants to take a call from an over zealous Sales Rep, or has the time to follow irrelevant, clumsily written messages on social media sites, so we aim to provide a clearer, more intelligent and balanced programme to attract and retain new and valuable clients to your business.
We endeavour to give you the most cost effective, thoughtful and tailored platforms on which to present your company's ethos, products and services to your target audience, however ambitious or modest your requirement.

Founder
Menagerie PR
November 2012 - Present (12 years 1 month)
Founded by myself, Menagerie PR has evolved from 20 years of working within the creative industry.
I started my career as an editorial assistant at Campaign magazine, but quickly moved into the post production arena.
In this new and exciting field, I established myself in a variety of roles at some of London's most respected post houses, including The Mill, Complete, Golden Square and Absolute.
After a short spell in production as Executive Producer at Crossroads Films UK, I returned to my real passion for building sales, raising awareness and getting involved in the general management of post production houses.
Here, I continued to build on my reputation as a leader in client services, whilst nurturing my knowledge and passion for the industry and those who work within it. I set up Menagerie when I noticed that a number of companies required this service, but were unable to employ a full time Press and Marketing manager. Menagerie steps in to bridge the gap between what a company requires without being a burden on their overhead.
