Twenty-five years of making them: a national magazine, campaigns across Asia, a team built from nothing, software, and now songs and stories.

The person behind the sleeves
I'm Duane. I started by founding a youth magazine in the UK and never really stopped making things. That led to building social teams across Singapore, India and Indonesia, running a boutique agency, and leading digital for Burson-Marsteller in Germany.
The thread through all of it is simple: find the human thing in a brief, then build the system that gets it to people. These days I also build software, make music, and write short pieces as Dante Black.
Based in Brighton & Hove. Open to digital, social and creative leadership roles, remote or hybrid.
