I’m very excited to have joined The Moment. I believe that brands have the power to make a difference to people’s lives and so was inspired by the Coffee vs Gangs series the content company created for Kenco. The series has since won The Drum’s award for Best Branded Content Campaign. I want to help The Moment create more inspirational content and hopefully win a few more awards along the way
