The Musings Of An Opinionated Sod [Help Me Grow!]


Me

My name is Robert … I am short sighted, bald, have the dress sense of a 14 year old [from 1978] and like the sort of music your mother warned you about. 

I like to describe myself as a Positive Pessimist but if you were to ask other people, they’d say there’s a whole host of other names they’d rather use to define me.

Ahem.

I currently live in Los Angeles though I originally come from Nottingham – famous for Robin Hood, Nottingham Forest Football Club and being the most violent city in Europe.

Over the years I have been lucky enough to live in England, Australia, Singapore, Hong Kong, China and America and work with amazing people, agencies and clients including Howell Henry [HHCL], cynic, Google, Wieden+Kennedy, NIKE, Spotify, Virgin and Converse doing mad stuff like designing Jumbo Jet interiors, developing non-lethal military hardware, creating a range of mopeds [built around a countries needs rather than a riders] and positioning uber-space Gods, NASA [“Earth’s Envoy”] to name but a few.

Oh, I’m also [till they come to their senses] head of strategy for R/GA across EMEA.

I know this all seems incredibly unfair, but maybe it’s karma’s way of making up for the fact I’ve had to live with an incredibly ugly face!  Hey, I’d still rather be pretty …
