A CREATIVE DIRECTOR STORYTELLER and Problem Solver who MOONLIGHTS as a FLORAL ARTIST

Hi! I’m Clare. I lead brilliant teams to make beautiful things.
After sensing the need for another Australian in New York, I relocated here from London in 2016 and have been creating award-winning global campaigns, digital experiences, and marketing for some of the world’s most beautiful brands ever since. 

Most recently, I was the first hire on Squarespace's Campaigns team, where I spent the last 4 years helping grow and establish the team as the industry’s best in-house agency. Prior to that I was a Creative Lead on AKQA’s new business team, with a perfect pitch record for winning storytelling and digital innovation work.

With a long-awaited, freshly minted Green Card in hand, I’m taking on freelance creative and branding projects. 

Outside of work you’ll find me in or near a body of water, learning floral design, taking my dog on hot girl walks, and scouring the internet for vintage Prada.
