Hello. I’m Alice.

I'm an Associate Creative Director at Havas New York with 13 years experience. Originally from London.

I’ve worked on multimillion $$$/£££ campaigns. And made proactive short films for a couple of quid and a lot of favors.

I’ve won industry awards, and made my mum proud.

I’ve always wanted to write an Economist headline.
