Best pitch presenter you’ve ever seen:

I was lucky enough to see Madonna Badger (from the ad agency Badger and Winter and founder of the #IStandUp campaign) at Cannes Lions in 2016. A very moving presentation that will stay with me forever. 

Best sports marketing campaign (that wasn’t yours):

Channel 4's 'We're the Superhumans' for the 2016 Paralympic Games, or Nike's 'Dream Further' Women's World Cup video. 

Best agency (that isn’t yours): Forever in awe of the work that W&K do for Nike. Hope and Glory PR do some great creative work in the lifestyle sport space too. 

Best young industry talent:

Katie Wyatt - the women's football reporter at the Telegraph. 
 

Best sporting event attended: London 2012 Olympics

Best sporting event on TV: The Olympics

Best brand ambassador:

Zanna Van Dijk for Adidas. Also not necessarily for a brand, but I really admire Raheem Sterling for speaking out about racism and working alongside Kick it Out to spearhead change. 

Best industry event or conference: Sport Industry Awards

Best film containing a scene depicting the sports business: 

Although portraying a negative side of sport, the doping in cycling documentary Icarus is absolutely fascinating. 

Best book recommendation:

Sport related - 'Eat Sweat Play' (Anna Kessel). Non sport related - Dolly Alderton's 'Everything I know about love'  - hilarious and essential for anyone in their 20s. 

Best bar or pub: Gordon's Wine Bar on Embankment 

Best restaurant: Salt Yard on Goodge Street

Best holiday resort: Maldives

​

Best influence on your career:

I'd have to say my peers, I'm very lucky to have a good group of friends within the sports industry - we've shared each others highs, lows, struggles and celebrations over the years.
