I’m Ev, short for Eveline. And I’m a Senior Creative, short for:

 

Hacking Google on behalf of the British Army (where my clients were actual army majors. No pressure). Getting the world’s biggest tampon brand to admit their product wasn’t up to scratch — then being given free rein to change it up. Winning Commercial Team of the Year at both The Drum and Campaign Media Awards with these ideas. And more!

 

London-born to an Indian-Egyptian mum and a Scouser dad (who’d swap the Great Pyramid for Goodison Park as a world wonder), I got my start through Ogilvy’s internship scheme The Pipe — selected from 2,000 applicants as one of 14 “misfit” creatives. My creative partner and I were the first offered permanent roles, finding our place in Ogilvy’s Social & Content team.

 

Since then I’ve swapped the Thames for Amsterdam’s canals,  where I continue to combine traditional craft with social-first thinking. Most happy when leading ideas driven by humour, playfulness and human insight.
