Hi, I’m Paff 👋🏽
I'm a freelance creative based in Edinburgh, Scotland. As a writer, speaker, creator and consultant, I often work at the intersection of storytelling, impact and inclusion. My personal mission is to empower people to take up more space, and I’ve built an audience of over 110K doing exactly that.
I’m also a professional marketer, with 10+ years of experience working both client and agency-side, specialising in brand strategy, paid advertising and content marketing.
Alongside my wife Hannah Peacock, I founded Take Up Space, a community and media-company for diverse creatives.
what i do
Content Creation & Writing
I partner with brands, creating bespoke multimedia content that engages, inspires and educates their audience. Brands can also tap into my diverse audience of over 110K+ people globally.
Public Speaking
Combining storytelling with actionable insights, I am a seasoned speaker that can be hired to create impactful keynote sessions, curate and host panels or provide authentic insights as a panellist.
Consultation
I consult with all types of brands to help them create a more inclusive workplace, products & campaigns through a Black, queer and neurodivergent lens. I am also available for personal branding, marketing & web3 consultancy.

what they say about me
Paff curated and hosted a Pride panel event for us. They not only helped connect us with relevant speakers, they also made event planning a breeze by leading on the content of the discussion which was incredibly considered and informative. They were a pleasure to work with throughout and the result of their detailed upfront work and prepping the panelists resulted in an incredibly successful event. I would highly recommend Paff!

Huge thanks for delivering such a fantastic and engaging session for our team about inclusive behaviour in the workplace. It’s been a perfect mix of personal stories (presented in a relatable and non-judgemental, non-patronising way), of interactive elements (which kept the team invested and engaged), and of practical advice (presented in a very comprehensive way which is easy to remember).

Paff is the best hire I ever made - and I don't say that lightly, cause I've hired a lot of great people. Paff combines an incredibly solid knowledge-bank of everything paid-social, with a creative mindset and full-funnel marketing vision; which allows them to always be on top of creative and status quo-breaking strategy AND best practices. Anyone, would be lucky to have Paff as their hire, colleague or boss.
