About

I got into research by writing to Mary Goodyear of MBL about chocolate biscuits. Six months later I was on a plane to Abidjan thinking, 'this is the best job in the world'.

It still is.

I moved to SRG and worked with Roddy Glen and Barry Ross on advertising research and stayed so long I became the MD.

I set up Wardle McLean with Judith Wardle in 1996.

I specialise in brand, communications and experience research. I see my job as engaging with the right people in the right ways, to help clients make the best decisions.

Outside work I am a photographer, musician, part-time cyclist and a full-time dad. I live in Hackney, east London.
