Chris's career has taken him both client and agency side, with a background in Government Communications at Cabinet Office, Defra and the Department of Energy and Climate Change, before embarking on a shift of direction as Head of Digital Comms at Education Consultancy, EdComs.
Chris' real strengths in digital communications lie in building online communities, understanding and communicating with hard to reach groups and using social media tools and techniques to get to them - and influence them. Chris has specific (somewhat geeky) interests and experience in analysing and understanding data, email marketing and social media monitoring and also has plenty of experience in marrying his digital and social comms knowledge with above-the-line marketing methods.
Originally from Hitchin, a small market town in Hertfordshire, Chris now likes to spend his spare time exploring new pursuits in 'up and coming' Walthamstow with his wife and two young sons, Lawrie and Douglas, seeking out the best flat white in the local area before getting down to some serious training for his next 10k!
